    Which Tube line to take during rush hour?

    Which Tube line to take during rush hour? The best Tube line has been revealed | UK News

    People pack into a carriage on the Northern line during rush hour packed like sardines in a tin. The smell, the rudeness and the lack of hygiene by some people is difficult to comprehend.

    As such you will struggle to find anyone that enjoys taking the Tube in London during rush hour.

    But on a scale of hellish-ness, there are some that could be considered better than others thanks to their frequency. In anycase, the best tube line has been revealed.

    Easy Tube Map has created a map showing the most and least frequent transport lines in London during peak times.

    The most frequent in the world

    The line with the most frequent service during weekday peak times is the Victoria Line, with 36 trains per hour.

    Coming in a close second is the Central line, followed by a tie between the Northern and Jubilee lines.

    At number five comes the Piccadilly, District and the Elizabeth lines, who all have around the same frequency.

    Then it’s the Bakerloo, followed by the Metropolitan, then Waterloo & City.

    The two lines with the lowest frequency of trains are the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines.

    One person commented on social media: ‘Always surprises how infrequent the circle line actually is, I’ve waited over 10 minutes for a train to cover the section between Aldgate and Tower Hill or HSK and Gloucester Rd.

    ‘As a non Londoner it strikes as very not like London for it to be that infrequent.’

    The Victoria line is spot on

    Another person posted: ‘The Victoria line is definitely spot on. It used to be my daily commute and there was consistent tubes coming through during peak times.’

    The Victoria line has the most frequent service during rush hour, however, frequency isn’t the only measure of what makes a line good or bad.

    The Central Line is the busiest

    The Central Line, for example, gets the highest amount of passengers, with 260 million people travelling on it each year.

    Anyone who has travelled on the Central Line at peak hour won’t be surprised by this. It’s not uncommon to have to wait four or five trains before you can actually get on.

    And as for the ‘winner’, the Victoria line – it might be frequent, but it has also officially been named the hottest.

    Central and Bakerloo lines are the warmest

    The Central and Bakerloo lines were the next warmest with average temperatures of 26.7C and 26C during the same period.

    And guess which line was found to be the noisiest in 2022? Yep, it’s the Victoria line again. Well, according to the number of complaints made to TFL about the issue.

    So maybe the Victoria line isn’t the ‘best’ in rush hour after all.

    What do you think? Is there a line that’s the most bearable during peak times?
