Did you ever ride on the pre-rebuilt Glasgow Subway?! * :-)

Oh, what memories! Mainly the smell (a combination of sewage and
concentrated tobacco smoke - even though the carriages were tiny,
smoking was allowed) and the fact that some of the 1896 carriages were
still in use in the 1970s.

And the ride usually left me feeling seasick. There was something odd
about the suspension - the seat squabs and seat backs moved
independently in different directions, like some sort of manic
fairground ride.

Bah. The time I made a special trip to Glasgow, there was a crack in
a tunnel or something and the whole service was suspended, so I never
got the chance to ride on it.
