Trivia question.

3) The end of the line that is geographically nearest to the centre of London.

Bank on DLR does that count ??

Okay an easy underground question. You're sitting on a tube train and looking out the window you notice that the station you're at starts with 'H'. And for the next 9 stops every station also starts with 'H'. Where did you start?

Hounslow east

Right second time (I saw the original of "Heathrow Terminal 5" before you edited it).

..And I will raise you what is the longest distance journey between two adjacent stations.

It's out where I grew up - Chesham to Chalfont & Latimer.

I'd like to 'represent' my 'man dem (them)' and give a 'shout out' to the 'shit hole' that was Ponders End with a Tottenham Hale.

I have lived there and am one of very few survivors.

The furthest distance (in miles) you can travel on the tube without changing lines.

As a bonus point the furthest you can travel on a single line without seeing daylight.

Including the Circle line?

The whole Victoria line? don't know the mileage

The Central line from Stratford to somewhere in West London could be an option.

If not, the entire Vic Line.

Up and down the Victoria line all day until they throw you off.

Hatton Cross

 

[catfish]

Arnos Grove

 

[clapham_gull]

The central line end to end covers 34 miles.

Just underground it's a journey on the northern covering 17 miles.

Must mentioning that most of the underground isn't.

 

[clapham_gull]

Including the Circle line?

Well they should think of renaming that since you can't do a circle anymore.
