摘要

The author has fully understood all the design and operating constraints that affect the working of the London Underground. The book features many photos covering the early stages of development, right through to the present day. The book covers the origin of the Underground; from the Act of Parliament, through to the development of trains and signals and then onto communications, signage and CCTV. What this book clearly brings to light, is London Underground's quite extraordinary ability to absorb and showcase the latest inventions. This meant that on its own initiative, it could take these inventions one stage further and apply its own innovations in such a way that it led the world in underground train operation and development generally. This allowed it to optimise its assets operationally. For example, in 1909 the headway on some of the lines was up to 42 trains an hour. All this, against a background of fast evolving market opportunities from people travelling to work within London and to the new department stores that were opening. The development of the interior train design to allow for passenger movement and maximum usage of space is covered in detail.
