New Tube hotspots map
"The warmest parts of the Underground network have been revealed in a
map compiled by Transport for London (TfL)." Full story from BBC News online: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8218059.stm Actual map can be seen either linked to from the above story, or directly via: http://tinyurl.com/Tube-heat-map I don't think it's quite complete, looking at the Northern line - "Data not available / selected" seems a little cryptic (well, "data not available" is self-explanatory, but "not selected" is somewhat less clear). |

Which must mean the heat is mainly down to the passengers rather than the trains , otherwise the fully underground victoria line would be the same temp everywhere. B2003 |

"Data not available / selected" seems a little cryptic (well, "data not available" is self-explanatory, but "not selected" is somewhat less clear). I'm guessing "data not selected" might mean that they didn't elect to show readings for overground or (most) subsurface sections of line, whereas "not available" applies to white tube sections. |

I agree that much of the heat is down to the passengers, but I wouldn't expect the Victoria line to be a constant temperature as many of the trains will actually spent sometime above ground when reversing at Seven Sisters (not sure if all trains are diagrammed to do this at some point during the day though). I personally find the Central line more comfortable on a hot day than the Victoria, which might be down to better in train ventilation. |

That just means the line runs too close to one of the MoD's secret underground nuclear piles, so its temperature has been suppressed. tom -- Get my pies out of the oven! |
