The London Underground

Being in London you might take the Underground,

So here are fun facts and a little how-to:

-

In 1863 the Underground made its debut.

The city of London it does run through.

And despite its name, only 45% is underground- which I never knew.

-

There are 12 lines that have different colors, so here is a little preview:

Piccadilly is dark blue and Victoria is light blue.

Northern is black and Jubilee is grey; which leaves from Waterloo.

Central is red while Waterloo & City is a turquoise hue.

Hammersmith & City is pink, and going from east to west is what it will do.

Circle & District are yellow and green, yes this is true.

Metropolitan magenta, Overground orange, Bakerloo brown are alliterations, a helpful clue.

And Elizabeth line is purple which at the end of some year will be brand new.

-

And during rush hour there will be a queue.

So please mind the gap as you might fall through.

And mind the closing doors or you might lose a shoe.

If you are ill and go ach-oo!

Please use your elbow, a handerkerchief, or tissue.

And one last reminder always be nice to the underground crew.
