Anything that slows down tube rushers is a good thing, I'm all in favour.

Just searched for an internet piece on this very subject that I remembered reading a few years ago. I found it on Snopes here….

Slightly disappointed to discover that what I had long held to be a Disgusting True Fact actually wasn't, but, as a daily traveller on the Jubilee Line, probably far more relieved.

One would assume so. However, they've got one at the north-west exit of the Reeperbahn S-Bahn station - an exit that is used an awful lot, particularly at weekends, if only by people who are going to the bushes for (what they think is) a well-deserved wazz.

I can tell you for a fact that Jubilee line trains are scrubbed clean on a regular basis inside and out.

Actually, now that it should be called the Spiral, there's quite a large chunk of the Circle that's overground. Hammersmith - Paddington.
