A Musical Battle For Busking Spots In The Underground | The Tube | Spark

For years, busking on the tube was illegal, because unsupervised performers posed safety problems. But surveys have shown that 80% of customers wanted to hear good music as they traveled on the underground network. This lead to what we now know as the tube busking scheme.

Summer 2003 was no easy feat for the people working on the tube, making sure day to day workings of the underground ran as smoothly as possible. From strikes to repairs, to world records, join us as we get to know the unsung heroes of the Tube.
