yes, Senoufou the subway is pretty much the same as it was. you're right abcd, folk don't talk about getting on the clockwork orange - though it's an affectionate nickname that everyone recognises. second oldest underground in the world after budapest apparently (if i remember right) Talking of trains - if ever you get the chance it's well worth going on a tour of Glasgow Central as a lovely and fascinating old place. Mind you, the last time I was there was a the sunday before the pubs were shut and i was waiting for my train back to Carlisle. As a few trains were cancelled and a lot (including mine) were delayed the concourse was completely packed with passengers. Of course, there were people coming and going from all over the place and it felt wrong and creepy to be part of that crowd. I hope it won't be too long before we can all go back there in happier and more relaxed times
