@HampshireBrony8 жыл бұрын
The line is still powered by DC. The stock use an AC traction package. You also see this on mainline stock, the SWT Desiros have the AC traction package so give that UFO sound when they move off. 377s make a sound not dissimilar from the Jubilee stock. AIUI the AC motors are more efficient than the DC ones, so the energy loss by conversion is still worthwhile with the motor power.

@2:30 The Jubilee line was originally going to be called the Fleet Line - a brilliant name. It not only went to Charing Cross, but the tunnels continued for maybe another half-mile further east (I've walked them) heading for the City of London. It would have gone under The Strand and Fleet Street with stations at places like Ludgate Circus - a route below a major London thoroughfare not well served by the Tube.

@pubwebmaster11 жыл бұрын
A nice introduction. It's interesting, to me, that the Jubilee Line from Finchley Road to Stanmore started life as the Metropolitan Line, then it became severed from the Met as a branch of the Bakerloo Line, with the tube section added between Finchley Road and Baker Street to relieve congestion and allow Met trains to run fast. Then in the 1970s, the tunnel from Baker Street to Charing Cross was built, the Stanmore branch of the Bakerloo was severed and the Jubilee Line was born. Initially, the proposal was for trains to carry on beyond Charing Cross under the Strand to Fleet Street, hence the original proposed name: the Fleet line. This could have provided interchange at Aldwych, and led to that station remaining open, in some form! Out east, the section from Stratford to Canning Town was built parallel to the old Eastern Counties Railway branch to North Woolwich, now mostly the DLR. Overall, one of LU's most complex line histories!

I find it strange that the jubilee line initially only ran to Charing Cross - given that it took over the Bakerloo line part from Stanmore to Baker Street, and the Bakerloo already ran to Charing Cross, the only new part that was actually added was a separate route from Baker Street to Charing Cross (via Bond St. and Green Park in instead of Regent's Park, Oxford Circus and Piccadilly Circus). Why was this deemed necessary back in the 70s? And why did it take them 20 years to extend it? I'm not saying there wasn't a reason, I'm just quite confused
@chrisoddy87442 жыл бұрын
The original plans for the Fleet line (as it was then called) planned for a phased extension east of Charing Cross (Phase 2 would have been under Central London to Fenchurch Street via Aldwych and Ludgate Hill, for example, with Phase 3 planned to take the line east into the Docklands or down to Lewisham in various iterations). Unfortunately, these plans took so long to not finalise that the funding was kiboshed until someone a bit happier with trains was around in power, at which point the present route down via the South Bank was selected instead, and to avoid a ridiculous chicane in the line the plan advocated for Charing X to be bypassed in favour of Westminster. Jago Hazzard has an excellent series of videos on the potential Jubilee line extensions we could have got that explain it far better than I do - well worth a watch!

The tube scenes in Skyfall (‘Temple’ and ‘Embankment’) were filmed in Charing Cross, and the disused Jubilee line platforms were used for the platform scenes. This is why a Jubilee line train is masquerading as a District line train.

The Jubilee Line has the dubious distinction of having perhaps the shortest-lived trains, which ran from when it was new in 1979 (and took over the Stanmore branch of the Bakerloo Line as you said in your Bakerloo line post). The proposal to link West Hampstead together I believe ground into the sand at some point. And you could point out that along with the Aldwych Branch of the Piccadilly, the Jubilee Line has a complete abandoned set of tunnels between Green Park and Charing Cross - you do mention the platforms.

The 1972 stock that was initially used on the Jubilee is now in the running for the longest serving stock on the Underground, entering service on the Northern and Bakerloo lines in 1972. I presume you mean the 1983 stock, which only saw 14 years of service

0:16 Isn't the Hammersmith & City line the newest? It was built in 1990.

But it was a line to link London no new tracks as it went over District line Barking-Whitechapel then circle down to hammersmith the curve between Aldgate ish- Whitechapel was already made by east London line. But I see what your thinking but H&C is not.

It was part of the Met before.

The newest line to be designated an Underground line is the Waterloo & City in 1994, but it operated as part of British Rail and its predecessors for 96 years before that. The H&C was for many years simply a branch of the Metropolitan line

There's an old ventilatiom shaft at London Bridge that still connects up to King William Street. Rotherhithe though, is not on the Jubilee line.
