4. But also a little bit weird.
5. And you'll no doubt get barged out of the way by someone who just REALLY NEEDS A SEAT so they can do this.

6. There's always some wanker who needs a seat for their bag.
Obviously David Cameron is one of those people who gives their bag its own seat on the train. Obviously! #tosser

10. It's amazing who will shove you out of the way to get a seat.
11. And it's an absolute disaster when, after a hard day of work, you're met with this.
12.
13. AND THIS.
WHYYYYY?!?!
14. Delays can be caused by many different things, such as flooding.

18. Sometimes even the guard doesn't know what's happening.
19. And the staff at the station don't seem to care about your strife.
"Tough."
20. It can get almost apocalyptic when the trains go wrong.

28. And this modern, drunk man who chose to sit on the floor.
29. If you go out after work, you're punished by having to ride the train home with people like this.
30. And this.
31. And this guy.
But no matter how crowded or ridiculous, commuting in always somehow ends up being worth it.
Because LONDON.
