The longest Tube journey is on the Central Line, West Ruislip to
Epping, at 54.9 km (34.1 miles).


Although 11km or so are not in London but in the Epping Forest district of
Essex.

By an odd coincidence, today's N207 Holborn - Uxbridge was previously
numbered N89 until some years ago (although it was then, I believe,
Trafalgar Square - Uxbridge as all night buses then centred on
Trafalgar Square).

Can't you do Cockfosters - Cockfosters via the Heathrow loop that would be
longer?

Are there any services from West Ruslip and back through Hainault and
Woodford?

When this newsgroup was set up we discussed at great length what the
definition of "London" was. I'm pretty sure we decided that it included
inside the M25 plus all outposts of LUL.

I very much doubt the OP was using that definition.

If you're lucky you can probably do somewhere-in-west-london and
back again on the central line via it's loop - or do they turf
passengers out of those trains?
