Oh? I thought the LU bylaws technically disallowed open containers of
alcohol on LU property - I remember reading about it in a thread in
this group.


It must be right then :-)

What is a more interesting point is the extent of enforcement because
the implication is that no one who is intoxicated may use LU. If that
was enforced we would hardly have anyone travelling on the last trains
each evening.


Would _you_ like to be the one to tell someone like Windy that
she couldn't use the Tube after a night out with the boys?

Yeah but, how about taking a bottle to a party, or the bottle
of wine in your Sainsburys bag of shopping?

I would imagine the majority of the travelling public carry
alcohol on the tube at some time or other.


The rule is there so that football specials can be designated "dry"
when required.

I stand corrected then. Having looked at the LU site this would appear

These bylaws apply to LU only. Do London Buses have their own similar
bylaws? Does anyone have a weblink to them?

I know TfL have Conditions of Carriage that apply to all their
services, but these relate to ticketing rather than behaviour.
