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).

Its a bit odd - the central seems to be hot everywhere and the other lines
hottest in around the west end. 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.

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.

It may also reflect the difference in ventilation between the various
sections of line. Things like the numbers of shafts, fan performance,
whether the stations have escalators straight down to platform level, etc.

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.

No underground nuclear piles in that part of London mate - It's the S******
R****** being kept in steam.

Secret nuclear reactors beneath central London are the cover story!
