Things you only find out by using the tube - Was Best feature on a metro system?
 
Changing between W&C and Central at Bank, it's easier to via the
travelator and ticket hall, than walking down that long, long tunnel.

Changing between the Northern and Jubilee lines at London Bridge, it is
not step-free unless you go up to the ticket hall and back, and that way
is longer. Sigh.... I don't *really* mind stairs, but my knees
sometimes do.

From the Northern line platforms steps are unavoidable unless you use the
MIPs lift.

I know, it's a pain.... Coming home, now, I stay on the Jubbly until
Waterloo, which is a longer change, but the Northern Line is marginally
less crowded, I find. And step-free.

Are those lifts working now? I know where they a on the Northern line,
through a door and down a corridor. They seemed to be always out of order.
I don't really need them now - my son is no longer in a puschair - but it
would be handy to know if they are going.
