The railways and (slightly less so) the Tube are missing a trick with
newspapers, free or otherwise, in that they get picked up as rubbish.
Why not put a clearly-signed plastic newspaper rack in each vestibule
(perhaps facing the seats on the Tube so it doesn't get in the way of
standing passengers) and encourage passengers by way of notices and
announcements to leave any unused newspapers in the rack for another
person to read?

Tidier, more environmentally-friendly, good passenger service and would
cost next to nothing.

Better still if the peasants could take their free comix with them and
dispose of them like grown-ups
