The Tube
Definition:

The London underground train network, is most commonly referred to as the tube. It is never referred to as the subway or the metro.

The London Underground has been known as The Tube since 1890, when the first deep-level electric railway line was opened. The age of the system means there are regular Weekend Engineering Works.
