Where are they coming from? Leytonstone? Not likely. More likely
to be the West End - and the suggestion was not to run the tube
24/7 through that area.


Ah, seem to have missed that point; sorry!

Seems to be catering for the really small market of people who go
clubbing at Kirkdales, or who have already endured a long bus
journey.


You mean there are clubs that close before the Tubes start ?
Well there are on Sunday mornings, of course ... hours spent at Highbury...

Glasgow Subway is £1 single. And since it's a circle, you can get a lot for
your pound. You can go round and round and round and round and round and
round and round all day (if you're sufficiently sad).

Also, you never have to miss your stop, just wait for it to come round again
(I did steal this idea from someone else).
