Try living in zone 3 London, snow is just something that happens to other people - still, doesn't stop the trains all instantly grinding to a halt though!

There is some sort of stat thats says 75% of the undergound is overground...or something like that

 

But yes, everything fails, because unless you have a slight northwesterly wind, with the right leaves, the right rain, the right snow, the right light conditions, the right temperature, and the right day of the week - it fails. Oh and its massively expensive. Oh and they want everyone to quit their cars and get on it....when its not fit for purpose at the moment...

I think it's about 45% underground, from memory.

 

But there are 2 lines that are completely underground; Waterloo & City and Victoria line. The latter has suspended service several times due to the weather...

 

 

 

These, and other exciting TfL facts, were brought to you by someone who does not always enjoy his job.
