Just wondering... did the person who decided that the Fleet
Line should be renamed the Jubilee Line get their knighthood?


Many people think that the Jubilee's colour is silver; in fact it is officially grey.

Another trivium: the Victoria Line was going to be called the Viking
Line, because it connected VIctoria and KING's Cross.


Why not Brixstow?


There's only one current line with a made-up composite name like that: the
Bakerloo. And only one other one has a name based on its end points at all:
the Hammersmith and City.
