A Bakerloo Line underground train
Is it particularly sad and tragic to have a favourite London underground train because, I have to confess, my personal favourite is the Bakerloo Line? Travelling on the Bakerloo Line feels like a real step back in time with the carriage’s brown colouring, saggy seats and curved partitioning. Hardly surprising as the trains on the Bakerloo Line are now over 50 years old!
This photo was originally posted to my blog, An Every Day Thing. Given the historical nature of this carriage and its aesthetically appealing curves, as an object of beauty, I considered posting it to Sometimes London. However, it is still also just a grubby underground train for commuters so I decided it is probably somewhat urban and therefore belongs on London Edge.
