Transport Mnemonics

[Tom B]

‘Not quite Lennon-McCartney, but our top hit could still be Lambada’. This is a possible mnemonic for Zone One stations on the Central Line, going W-E.

Does anyone here use, or know of, similar mnemonics, whether for cycling or more general transport?

The only transport mnemonic I know is the very rude one they used to teach London Underground staff to remember the order the line controller's emergency phone numbers went in.

Irritatingly, the stations between Oxford and Didcot are only an anagram of CRAP, as two are in the wrong order.  Radley, Culham, Appleford, Parkway.

That is actually a lot less offensive than the one for resistor colour codes

To let someone be wet when ladies vault carefully against bored wobbly people has catastrophically knackering terrible results.

You mean correcting for variation?  I thought that was "East Least West Best".

Other than being more difficult than remembering the actual bridges, where's Hungerford?

Road bridges only, I fancy - no sign of the Wobbly (well, Millennium) Bridge nor the rail bridge to Cannon St either, and you'd need to double-count Blackfriars.

I had a brief stint as a minicab driver and needed something to help me work my way round town.

I was crap at it. After deductions my first week's pay was 20p.
