London

I think the Central line is grim. I don't mean the trains are grim. I don't mean the stations are grim either.

When I get in the central line train, the passengers look sooooo despondent. Commuters being sentenced to death for the next eight hours or whatever the work shift is. The tourists traveling on the Central line do not look happier either.

I find you don't see Londoners in zone 1. Personally I think the amount TFL charge to travel in that zone is astronomical.

You see more of Londoners in the Overground line. It's air-conditioned too. Occasionally, you do get drama on it, and when it happens...oh boy...

Central line here. Although given how humid (urgh) it gets then I much prefer to take my life in my hands and cycle where possible.

South East London

I’m a Londoner and use the tube regularly. One way to solve the problem is look which way the train is travelling and get on the train via the doors closest to the driver. Make sure the window in the emergency door is open. As the train moves down the tunnel air is forced into the carriage and stays that way until the train brakes coming into the next station when the airflow reverses direction. You get a lovely cooling breeze without eau d’passenger.

Personally I don’t see what the problem is. Moaning won’t change it. Just smile and wave. They might think you’re mad but they’re on the same train as you so that’s snap

I don't have a problem with the Central Line outside peak commuting times, but during those I'd say the trains are grim. Tightly packed with no air con. I'm very fortunate that I have a choice of two lines to get to and from work without having to change - Central and Circle. I take the latter almost every time, even though it adds 15 minutes to the journey, because the experience is far more pleasant. Nicer, lighter, more spacious trains with air con. I find that worth the extra time.

About the only redeeming quality of the Central line is that it gets you between West and East London relatively quickly. I hope one day the likes of the Bakerloo, Central and Northern lines can get the newer trains.
