A bit weird I feel peace when I see old London people look a bit neater & less stressed. I loved London when I worked there (1985-1989) but the Magic is not quite the same with the chain shop's there used to be so many individual interesting shop's creative people at places like Kennsington Market & hypper Hyper on the other side of the road, Kings road used to be amazing but now boring, & Carnaby street was stuffed with people & stuffed with product in all the shop's music blaring out - Could lamost cry when I see "sterilised" Carnaby street today (the shope seem to have way less customers too!)

Ahhh the good ole innocent days of jumping on the tube as a kid and going for rides. I loved the old stock trains. They seemed much faster back then. Oh, not forgetting the smell of train as it was coming from the tunnel and that mad rush of air as well as the sound. Then, the bump and ride as the train jugged from left to right. Today's trains are modern and spacious with H&S in mind. They don't have that same feel as the old ones obviously. Glad to see graffiti is no longer an issue in tube stations or on the actual trains like it was back in the 1980s. Germany still to this day suffers from graffiti issue on their Tube lines (me thinks).

Did you notice how the transport control called the driver as soon as he stopped in the tunnel ? At the transport control hq, every train is represented by a moving dot of light on a huge screen, so the operators know immediately if a train stops unexpectedly, and they can contact the driver of the train behind to prevent an accident.

This 'hold up' at the ticket barriers (all because someone's ticket was abit too scrunched up to be accepted by the machines) was a regular daily occurrence on the LU; before the introduction of the Oyster card in 2003. Thank heavens for it, I say. It propelled LU into the 21st century, as it meant ALL the ticket barriers on the network at the time, had to be replaced at the same time, in order for the cards to be read. Of course some grumbled because they liked having a paper ticket (there's always a few!), and also it meant there didn't need to be as many staff in the ticket halls. Just one person - instead of several. Because after 2003, most people moved across to the Oyster card....so the only time the barriers didn't let you through was (and still is ) when you didn't have enough money on your card. Now of course you can alternatively use the Oystercard App, or a credit card. To think we put up with paper tickets for so long!

The trains were diabolical in those days, slow, infrequent and run down. But the people were as Jammy joe eloquently put ''wholesome...'' as well as well mannered and decent. Well dressed with individuality and style. They've mostly disappeared from London. Now its filled with non descript, white crud of Europe, and the world. Their faces are blank and miserable, they all look the same, dress the same and have no manners. Meanwhile they do have the benefit of a tube system that is better than its ever been. It's sad that people from the past put up with so much to pay for a service others would one day benefit from yet abuse.
