Agreed! not only does the problem of "black dirt" seem worst on this
line (I tend to experience it on most lines if I travel long enough),
but I also feel like passing out when on the underground part of the
line between Camden Town and Golders Green.

Given that others I've spoken with also feel the same along the same
part of the line suggests to me that the are is aweful there.

This is of course the part of the network which is furthest below ground
level, so perhaps the ventilation air is ineffective there. I've never had a
problem there, but whenever I ride the Piccadilly all the way from Bounds
Green to Barons Court, I need to stand in the doorway as soon as fresh air
is reached The Piccadilly is generally the deepest through Central London.

That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes

It's true. I always feel lethargic on that part of the Northern Line -
especially between Hampstead and GG. I've often wondered if it was just me
or if outside factors played a part.
