London Underground, world’s first metro, turns 150
The first ever London Underground railway operated on the Metropolitan Railway between Paddington and Farringdon in 1863 and the first steam train Tube journey on the London Underground will be recreated on Sunday and on January 20. Metropolitan Steam Locomotive Number 1, which dates from 1892, will be used to pull a restored original Victorian first-class carriage during these trips.
