“The London underground railway eventually became a huge success.” Support the statement with example.
It is true that the underground railway was criticised on many grounds as it displaced the poor people of London but ultimately it was a huge success as mentioned below : By the twentieth century, most large metropolises such as New York, Tokyo and Chicago could not do without their well-functioning transit systems. As a result of the railway, the population in the city became more dispersed. Better planned suburbs and a good railway network enabled large numbers to live outside central London and travel to work. The new conveniences wore down social distinctions and also created new ones.
