The London underground

One of the many global transport examples that makes Sydney transport look like a dogs breakfast
The London underground (also known as the tube) is considered the oldest rapid transport system in the world, which opened in 1863. It is also known as one of the first systems to use electric traction trains. What is every similar to the opal card in Sydney, Oyster card has been around since 2003 in London. The underground set a standard for the rest of the world in terms of intercity transport, having entrances available walking distance everywhere. On top of this the trains also arrive both very frequently and extremely consistently. If a train by chance is one minute late they will repeatedly apologize over the voice announcer for the duration of the service.
