Default I'm in the tunnel

Greetings.

Bad news -- it looks like mobile phones may work on the Tube after all,

cutting off of noisy phone callers as the train enters the tunnel.


I think the tunnel itself will be enough to make the noisy callers stop.
At least on the Central Line, when the train's in the tunnel, you need to
shout to be heard by, and strain to hear, a person sitting next to you. I
can't imagine it would be possible to carry on a telephone conversation
under those conditions, unless you are happy with the entirety of the
dialogue being, "What? What did you say? I can't hear you."

Regards,
Tristan
