I meant Tube in the specific sense of LU's trains for deep

they're a bit heavier and also move differently on their
(softer?) suspensions. The firmer suspensions of Tube
stocks probably excite different resonances.
It is a long time since I was on that stretch of Jubilee
Line, so you
might be right. District line trains make roughly the same
noise as
Picadilly approaching the station though. OTOH, I can
definitely hear
the difference between District line trains and North
London line
trains at Gunnersbury.
Perhaps someone should release a "Best Of" album?
