Tube Trains

[Richie616]

How do they fit those trains down the steps at Tube stations?

[funnygirl]

What??!!!!

[stewey]

The same way as you get a ship out of your basement.

[Kos]

The Underground is not totally under ground. Durrrr!!

[Richie616]

Unbelieveable. People actually responded!

[stewey]

I considered to be a real down to earth question.

[stewey]

'considered it'

[ChuckFickens]

I thought it was a perfectly reasonable question, how else do the trains get home when they have finished for the day?

[sara3]

yes Chuck, the train drivers take them home.. perk of the job.

[ChuckFickens]

they need one hell of a driveway to park one of those on.

[stewey]

Another prevalent theory, for which there is no probative documentation, is that the trains were there first and the holes in the ground were built around them.

[puternut]

I heard London Underground bought all of them holesale

[weeal]

Now this is the kinda thread I lurv

[Richie616]

Oh dear - this was a see who's gullible" type question. Sadly you responders know who you are!

[sara3]

Richie, I think the joke's on you!

[Richie616]

Sadly, Sarah, I think the joke's on Kos (Sorry Kos!). Could any sane person think that trains were squeezed down the steps??????

[sara3]

"you responders" would imply more than one, Richieh ;o)

[caththecrazy]

laughing at you as opposed to laughing with you fits the bill here

[Richie616]

Oh dear. Well, praise be, I can actually put my cards on the table and let you know that - as an employee - I am pretty much familiar with the Underground. Sorry if that hit a spot!

[sara3]

yes, a spot of bewilderment... you're not helping your case!

[Richie616]

Oh, Sara, Sara, Sara my dear,

Are you taking something that was intended to be light-hearted out of context?

Yours, Richie
