Stratford station is the only station on the underground where trains go into tunnels almost immediately after leaving the station in both directions (Central line). When I say almost immediately I mean <15 seconds and you can see the tunnel from both ends of Stratford station. Arnos Grove does have tunnel on either side but they are much further apart. Technically Morden does as well but only one side is operational for passengers, the other side leads to the depot.

The Jubilee line has the fewest stations that are above ground (14). And before any of you pop up about the Victoria and W&C lines, I'm not counting them because they have no above ground stations to begin with. Which is also a piece of trivia

Which is also a piece of trivia The Bakerloo Line has the fewest having only 10 stations above ground

Seven Sisters to Finsbury Park is the longest - 3.15km. 1. Seven Sisters - Finsbury Park: 3.15km 2. Stratford - Mile End: 2.83km 3. Highbury & Islington - King’s Cross: 2.45km 4. Canada Water - Canary Wharf: 2.41km 5. Turnpike Lane - Manor House: 2.32km Turnpike to Manor seems longer because the 1973 just isn’t as speedy as the 1992s, 1996s and 2009s! EDIT: Of course Stratford is technically outside. So, on that note, Gants Hill - Newbury Park (2.37km) is slightly longer than Turnpike to Manor. That gap between Finsbury Park to Seven Sisters was hell on earth especially when it kept starting and stopping. The Victoria line heat is a godsend in the winter, hell in summer 😂😂😂.

The Central Line will beat the Vic line by a huge margin with heat

Network Rail are in charge of signalling TfL infrastructure on London Overground's East London Line between New Cross/New Cross Gate and the west curve outside Dalston Junction. NR will have more responsibility for TfL metals when the Elizabeth line officially opens between west of Royal Oak and just before Stratford station/Abbey Wood.
Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station will be the first LUL stations to open in South London since Bermondsey, Canada Water and North Greenwich opened on the Jubilee line in 1999.
London Overground's South London line has stations which are largely operated by NR TOCs, Clapham High Street and Wandsworth Road are the only two stations managed by the TfL concession. Peckham Rye and Queens Road Peckham are managed by GTR's Southern brand, Denmark Hill by GTR's Thameslink and Clapham Junction by South Western Railway.
Abbey Wood is the only station managed by TfL Rail that doesn't operate any services by themselves in passenger service. Services are operated by Southeastern and Thameslink until the Elizabeth line opens.
London Overground in 2009 managed a group of stations that were only served by Southern services to London Bridge until the ELL extension to West Croydon/Crystal Palace opened in May 2010.

The Central is bad though as much as the 1992 stock is my current fave tube stock slightly beating the 72 stock
