In last December, we were in London for a week. I had heard from my teacher that London publictransportation was very good. He said that The Tube had made London have the best transportation in the
world - every day, a large number of commuters depend on it to go to their workplace. It was a great time
for me to ride it
My mother and I took the district line from Kensington to Westminster. We boarded the train at the West
Kensington station. The route of The Tube was underground. Nothing much could be seen except darkness
on both sides.
The Tube was moving at an incredibly fast speed. the train coaches were vibrating as it was going very
fast. We passed six stations, Earl's court, Gloucester Road, South Kensington, Sloanne square, Victoria and
St. James' Park. The stations were all brightly lit and Immaculately clean. Warning posters could be seen
everywhere. The commuters were reminded that no food or drinks were allowed in the station or trains.
These regulations are necessary and good for the proper maintenance of the place.
The ride was comfortable, interesting and enjoyable. Above all it was hassle-free. There were no traffic
lights and no traffic jams. We got off the train at Westminster station, looking fresh. A bus ride from
Kensington to Westminster would have taken at least 45 minutes or more. By The Tube, it took us only
Fifteen minutes.
in Westminster, we enjoyed being in front of the famous Parliament House and the Westminster Abbey. It
was a great moment
