Build your own London Underground Tube line and race trains.
"To win against a friend or the computer you need to drive quickly and safely. But that's not all -- you have to stop precisely at the platform to allow the maximum number of passengers on board. If you go too fast the Automatic Train Protection will stop the train. If you see sparks coming from your train you need to slow down.
If you want to build your own track click the "build" button. Create your own Tube line and race against a friend.
Have fun and don't forget to mind that gap."
