Personally, I've never found the Victoria line as bad as Bank Central Line.


I use the Vic most nights and the bit north of Stockwell _is_ pretty
horrendous.

Going OT a little, WAGN between Hitchin and Royston is pretty bad for
the fast mainline routes, though it's a comparatively short stretch
involved.

Theres a pretty nasty bit between kings cross and highbury too. I wonder if it
has anything to do with them using concrete sleepers instead of woodern ones
(in the sense of them amplifying vibration instead of absorbing it)?
