Instructions and Example pages from the TubeWhizzard booklet
















Below are the instructions printed inside the booklet. A child aged five can use TubeWhizzard.

 

Instructions

 

1.  Look up the station where you will alight.

2.  In that station’s entry, find the line

     and direction you will arrive on.

3.  In that line’s list, find the line (sometimes

     also direction) you will change to (or exit).

4.  The carriage code tells you where to wait:

 

1F        =   1st carriage at the front.

2F        =   2nd carriage from the front, 3F etc.

1B       =   1st carriage from the back, 2B etc.

1Ff      =            Front of first carriage

1Bb     =            Back of last carriage

1-2F    =            Between two carriages

                 e.g. 1st and 2nd from front

1F/2B  =            There are two choices

                 e.g. 1F or 2B

 

Which way will the train arrive? Use clues

like signal lights, CCTV screens and green

5-foot long horizontal bar the driver stops at.

Note direction of opposite-bound platform.

 

 

Try an example: imagine you are waiting for a Northbound Bakerloo line train at Piccadilly Circus and you're going to change from Bakerloo to Jubilee going north-west at Baker Street. You look up Baker St in the list, and under Bak Nbnd, find Jub Nbnd ; the 2F/1B you find there means: at Piccadilly Circus get into the second carriage from the front or the back carriage, and it will take about 30 seconds to walk through the interchange at Baker St.
