London Underground
About
The London Underground, affectionately known as \the Tube,\" is the world's oldest underground railway system, opening in 1863. It's a rapid transit system serving Greater London and parts of the adjacent home counties, with 11 lines and 272 stations across 402 km of track. The network is divided into nine zones, with fares varying by distance, time of day, and payment method, with Oyster cards or contactless payments being the cheapest.The London Underground utilizes two main types of trains: \"Tube trains\" for deep, narrow tunnels and \"Sub-surface trains\" for wider, shallower tunnels. While initially steam-powered, all passenger trains have been electric multiple units since the early 1900s. The Victoria Line was the first automatic passenger railway in the world, and other lines now also use Automatic Train Operation (ATO)."
