The London Underground is a rapid transit system serving Greater London and some parts of the adjacent home counties of Buckinghamshire, Essex and Hertfordshire in England.
The nickname "Tube" comes from the circular tube-like tunnels through which the small profile trains travel. (Deep level Northern line London Underground 1995 Stock train)
