    Hi everyone so today I’m gonna be suggesting the London Underground Victoria line for TSW 3!
    The Victoria line is one of the busiest lines that brings passengers all the way from South London to East London in just 30 Minutes!
    It goes from Brixton to Walthamstow Central using the 2009 stock.
    The 2009 stock goes up to 50mph and uses ATO and Manual Drive.
    The Victoria line first opened in 1969 and used the 1967 stock back then. The 1967 stock looked like the 1972 stock but with ATO Mode and Manual. The 1967 stock went 50mph which is the same speed as the 2009 stock.
    Sadly the 1967 stock was token out of service in 2011 and got scrapped to put the 2009 stock trains in unit.

    The 2009 stock is the latest deep level tube train in service. Well this won’t be the latest one on the deep level soon because new Deep Level trains were introduced for the Piccadilly Line.

    This is the left hand side of the 2009 stock driver cab. On the left hand side you have got the door buttons, ATO start, emergency breaks and other buttons.

    On the Right hand side of the drivers cab this is where the driver controls the train.
    So you have got the Deadman’s Handle which is the Big Red handle to move the train, door buttons, ATO Start and emergency breaks.

    This is the passenger interior of the Train.
    It features a Glass thing above the window that shows what the next station is and shows what station you’re at and shows the destination. On the outside of the train there’s another Glass thing that shows the destination and station. The seats on the Victoria have a Moquette featuring a pattern that’s Blue red and white. When riding the train loud sounds echo accross the whole train when driving in a tunnel.

    At the end of the tube carriage there is a gangway that you have to open with a handle to get to the other carriage. On the gangway there are 2 seats next to the gangway door and passenger doors to sit on if there’s no passenger seats left.
    At the end of a station platform there are stop markers where you have to stop at to open the doors. If you undershoot or overshoot it won’t let you open the doors. So always remember to stop perfectly in order to open the doors.
    The stations included in the route is Brixton,
    Stockwell, Vauxhall, Pimlico, Victoria, Green Park, Oxford Circus, Warren Street, Euston,
    King’s Cross St. Pancras,
    Highbury & Islington, Finsbury Park, Seven Sisters, Tottenham Hale, Blackhorse Road and
    Walthamstow Central.
    Thank you for looking at this suggestion. Feel free to Leave your thoughts below in the comments. Have a nice day everyone!

    I like the idea of another London Underground line but not the Victoria Line as it's similar to the Bakerloo Line and all tunnell where's as Metropolitan Line or District Line is subsurface line and in my opinion a better choice for TSW3

    The issue is the Victoria line is ATO operated meaning driving would likely get boring extremely quickly.

    Whether or not it is this one, I think it’s time we got another underground route. BKL came with positives and negatives which dtg can learn from and work to develop another LU line

    I don’t know about the Tube… we got one and that felt like enough, probably due to it just being a tunnel with stations between, and I’d probably prefer an Overground route.

    I wouldn't enjoy the Victoria I am because it is completely on the Underground
