Empty Carriage

I always enjoy the rare experience of looking down empty carriages when travelling on the London Underground network. Here's a photo taken as I arrived at Barking Riverside on the Suffragette line on the London Overground.

@tubemapper absolutely stunning picture but man that needs some decent alt text.
Apart from the weird seat design it definitely has a lot of Kubrick vibes :)
@chernoberl @tubemapper
The space station and parts of #ClockworkOrange had seat designs as odd as one might ask, I think.

the #SuffragetteLine is 13 miles and 58 #chains long.
Not a measurement I expected to see this century.

@tubemapper For me, the best bit about that view down a train is seeing the whole thing bend gently and then straighten again as you go round a corner.
@tubemapper had the same experience once going from Gare de Nord to Gare Montparnasse during COVID. I was going home and never been through a major station or taken a Metro at rush hour that was empty. It was very spooky...
