Default Why is the piccadilly line so slow?

Exactly. It may be close to Leicester Square station underground, but
Covent Garden station is nevertheless a busy station in its own right. And
the surface route between them isn't direct or obvious.


It looks pretty straight on Google maps along Cranbourn St and Long
Acre, but I don't think I have walked that way when I've been in
London.


Perhaps because of the talcum powder?

Joking apart, I've walked down there a hundred times, and that's without
ever having lived or worked in the vicinity.
