However, it seems that, even "London Transport" refer to Underground lines
by their geographic direction; it's not just the public signs that say
"Northbound" etc. Is that correct? Did they ever use up/down?


Yes.

Somewhere I have a 1900-ish working timetable for the District Line that
uses Up and Down (from memory, Up was towards Whitechapel).
