Got to say, the opening of this line is the first time I've been happy that one of my friends lives in Whitechapel.

Can confirm on the announcements they say "The Metropolitan and the Elizabeth line". Not "Line line".

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Can confirm on the announcements they say "The Metropolitan and the Elizabeth line". Not "Line line".

So the Metropolitan and the Elizabeth are the same type of line then? Hmmmmmm......

 

[Madíson]

So much heresy in this thread.

I hope they specifically mention in the announcement that ‘The Metropolitan, and the Elizabeth line’ contains an Oxford comma. Otherwise people might be confused.

I don't have anything in my diary that warrants using this until my friends' party in FOREST GATE in OCTOBER.

Forgetting about a certain other PARTAY aren't I

Girls this is vaguely off topic but wtf is the Jubilee line about.

 

[Lucille]

I couldn’t imagine a more preposterous route.

 

[Lucille]

I got it today because I was going to Bermondsey but I think the last time I was on it was 5 years ago. What a BIZARRE ROUTE.

 

[lolly]

I got it from Paddington to Liverpool Street today. Not going to lie, I pretty much had a semi at the station design and architecture.

 

[lolly]

Slightly UNDERWHELMED by the diagonal lifts though. They just looked a bit like a funicular.

Bermondsey station is

It was originally to double up on how congested the Bakerloo line was when it went to Charing Cross, then got extended all the way out to the east once the Canary Wharf money came in because it was a waste ending it in the centre.

Like any self respecting Zone 2 gay I exclusively reside on the OVERGROUND and CABS!

 

[Penelope]

There is NOTHING self respecting about taking a cab during a cost of living crisis!

 

[Alex]

I had to WAIT for the diagonal lifts at Farringdon so missed out on the excitement

 

[Lucille]

Should’ve got a CAB!

THE WORST LINE i hate it

Something isn’t computing about “self respecting” and “zone 2” in the same breath

 

[Martha Skidd]

I saw a man SHITTING ON THE STAIRS to the station in Woolwich once. In broad daylight.

I think you should provide some photos to illustrate your point

 

[Diddy]

Watching a few LIGNE LIZ videos from Geoff and another channel, looks swish.

It’s easy to be all at the train loons but it does make me happy that they’re looning out about something.

I get a bit jealous about people who are so obsessed with things like that, I need a PASSION

Oh wait they’re outside singing a reworded version of Purple Rain (Purple Train)..

 

[Jacques]

I couldn’t imagine a more preposterous route.

No one tell her about the Northern line

 

[SystemAddict]

LET’S.

 

[Kate]

I like the Jubbly Line! It's SPEEDY

 

[GinAg (39)]

Fucking CLOSED at Liverpool Street!

 

[Pingu]

Fucking CLOSED at Liverpool Street!

Yeah it’s a strictly Mon-Sat affair for the first year or so.

 

[Alex]

Yeah it’s a strictly Mon-Sat affair for the first year or so.

I had to get to GIDEA PARK and it was all closed up at Liverpool Street but then was fine getting back. BIZARRE

 

[Kate]

Well I’m ON IT, but the old TFL Rail bit east of Liverpool St. I assume the snazzy new trains are on the central section?
