And apart from the Victoria line, which is really named after Victoria
station, rather than the queen herself, that's long been the tradition. Far
better to have anodyne, vaguely geographic names.


Where's the vague geographic location of 'the Jubilee'?


Well, it did start out as the Fleet line... Of course, once it got
re-routed, that name was no longer appropriate, but I still think it was a
better name.
