I think you'll get short change from ordinary passengers who want to use your carriage ...

They can't it's reserved (well maybe just the back half of carriage anyway 
)
Seriously though I wonder how many people wouldn't get on a tube carriage that had reserved signs in the windows...?
The regular punters would probably ignore it, but the tourists more likely would go to another carriage. What do you reckon?

The regulars may also call the BTP ... then you're for it.

I was just chatting about this with the others in the office and one of them was in town the other week and got on a carriage (not with reserved signs obviously) where one of these parties was going on....
They were travelling the whole length of the line (he can't remember if it was Circle or not). Anyway just like in earlier posts they stopped the music when in a station and carried on partying between stops. All very good humoured and they gave him a drink as well......

Hey the more the merrier, we could open it up to friends of tubechallenge.com forumers too so we have a crowd going, adding commuters, I think we could possibly win the award for best Christmas party. Added to that, we don't need to book three months in advance to secure tables

Although a grand piano would be very amusing, since everybody would wonder how it was got there.

What do we reckon folks? Brass band at Paddington Station? Do they even count as buskers... depends if they were collecting money.

They once staged a live opera at Paddington station, which must surely rate as one of the best ways to spend a few hours while waiting for your train.

I am very impressed, catering to the first class passengers and educating the masses at Paddington

Is it technically breaking any LU byelaw to sit on the Circle Line for three or four hours?
Posted: 18 Sep 2006, 15:14
Presumably by "Circle line" you mean "Circle train", otherwise it definitely is against the byelaws.
Otherwise I doubt it! Obviously if you've not got anything else to do, it's a nice place to catch up on some paperwork. Who knows, you could even run your whole business on the Circle line via some sort of laptop...
(That bit might be against byelaws though.)

Although a one-day travelcard cuts down on office space expense...

technically if it became your office and we had a party there... it'd be an office party
