Needed to get from Monument to Finsbury Park recently and so decided
to take my first ride on the new ELL. Somehow the fact that the
trains were artics had passed me by.... what a pleasant surprise!
There is something very cool about being in a long bendy corridor
snaking its way between the buildings.

But they're not artic trains -- they're just normal Electrostars with
open gangways (similar to S Stock or German ICE3s).

Which is what the man on the Clapham omnibus (or the man usually found
driving the Harrow cab) means by 'articulated'. They care not for the
disbursement of bogies.
