Genuine question, how did you all stumble across the forum?
I'll start, I was in Year 11, sitting on my laptop Googling things related to the tube challenge, while in Geography and one of the links was a topic on this forum, so I signed up.

Re: How did you all find this site?
Long story, really.
I'd been very fascinated in the tube since I was very little. My dad printed out some things to do with Tube Relief, never forgot them, stumbled across this forum in 2011 and hit the register button.

I think it was via Geoff Marshall's site, while I was doing some research on topics related to the London Underground.
