Isn't that *twice* daily incarceration?
Later this week I will be back to riding the London Underground Jubilee line
two or more times a day, which was deliberately made smaller than older(?)
tube trains. Ostensibly so that the tubes would be cheaper to bore, but I know
the real reason... so that when it's rush hour you're not just squeezed in,
you also have to bend your head because the roof curvature means that you
can't stand up straight.
Well, actually I just found a way to get to work using only buses and the DLR,
but I wanted to complain about Jubilee anyway.
One good thing, the Jubilee cars are painted white, red, yellow and some sort
of light purple. Very garish, but very LEGO reproducable (if you can get the
curve right)
