My Trial Tube Challenge Routing

[Sam]

Just make sure you also cover those stations on a tube train as well

[waterloo and city]

Ah, excellent!

I'll assume that after covering all the north-west bits of the Metropolitan Line. I could then get a Chillten services into Marylebone then as well?

Yes, there is nothing to stop you using NR as long as you have covered the stations by LU except for the bits which are shared LU/NR line...

I prefer to look at it more along the lines of buses are for sensible people, running is for psychos

Plus the S3 near where I live, more a sightseeing tour of the backstreets of Carshalton than anything

Is there an informative guide on board to point out areas of interest?

That's fine thanks. No Highbury - Moorgate on a 313 then!

As you probably realise, you can use that line to connect between stations, but you must also visit Moorgate, Old Street, Highbury & Islington, and Finsbury Park by tube.

Since the Victoria line has no unique stations between Pimlico and Highbury & islington, it's possible that one might want to miss out that middle section. Just as a random example, one could do Brixton to Victoria, then round the Circle through Cannon Street and Aldgate to Moorgate, then take FCC to Highbury & Islington as you suggest, and then on to Walthamstow Central.

Will factor that into my next routing.

On a slighty different note, I've decided not to go for the GWR in Tube Challenging for this attempt. Maybe next year eh?
