The Tube is the informal British English name for the London Underground system. It is called so because the tunnels run through the city like tubes.

E.g. I am going to get the Tube to Camden Town.

-------

The Tube é o nome informal em Inglês Britânico dado ao Metropolitano de Londres. Este nome vem do facto dos túneis percorrerem Londres como tubos.

Ex: I am going to get the Tube (tube=metropolitano) to Camden Town.
