Instructions for a London Going Down the Tube – A poem

This scheme is controlled by London Underground

Keep clear of the doors

If you see a train being vandalised

Lower window for ventilation

This scheme is controlled by London Underground

Keep clear of the doors

If you see a train being vandalised

Lower window for ventilation

Do not take any risks.

Do not take up a seat with your bag

Lift flap to access

Mind the gap

Begging is not permitted anywhere on London underground property

Do not take any risks.

Change here for other destinations.

Do not attempt to leave the train unless instructed to do so

Do not let your friendship die on the road

Do not take any risks. 

It is safer to stay on the train 

Pull handle to speak to driver

Stand on the right 

If the train is in a tunnel it will continue to the next station

Do not take any risks.

Obstructing the doors can be dangerous

Not designed to cover thick skin

In the event of a power loss the emergency lights will automatically come on

Do not take any risks.

Smoking is not permitted anywhere on the station

Stand behind the yellow lines

Remember, CCTV cameras are in operation

Do not take any risks.
