People are telling me that the tubes are going to run for 24 hours
this new year. Is this true or will only be the usual extra hour
before total shut down?

It's true!
It was announced in The Londoner; given away free at stations end of
last week.

It's true!

Thank God! The tube seemed to close immediately after midnight on New
Year's Eve 2001/2002.

When will it stop being free? How will they deal with all the people
that got on just before it stopped being free and didn't get off
for hours later having fallen asleep, missed their stop etc. ?

The Tfl website also says that buses will run all night. Does anyone know if
this is only night buses that normally run anyway, or all buses in London,
even those that don't normally run at night.

As far as I know there will be an enhanced night bus service - normal
night service routes with some additional buses.

This is probably better for a lot of people than running the normal day
buses. If I want to catch buses home during the day I have to change
buses at least once, possibly more. With a night bus I can go straight
home from Trafalgar Square.

You've got to be able to get on the bugger first. The last time I spent NYE
in central London (in a non work capacity) I had walked over three quarters
of the way home before a night bus trundled along that wasn't so banged out
it had the punters stuck on the sides with superglue!
