Default Unusual?

I wondered how unusual my journey on LU today was? It was a completely
genuine journey, not in any way contrived, and which I've done from time to
time in the past.

It involved five LU lines, with all four changes being cross-platform. It
would have been possible to use fewer lines, but the journey would have
been longer, and with less convenient interchanges. As on the previous
times I've taken this route, all went very smoothly, with no delays or
problems, and with no interchange requiring a wait longer than two minutes
for the next train.

As an aside, it used both LU's oldest and newest stock.


I am not sure about the stocks, but I now think you ay have started on the Met, changed at Wembley Park for the Jube, then at Baker Street got on the Bakerloo. At some point I think you got on the District Line but I cannot think where that might have been, if not Mile End.
