Going Underground

Rob knows the trains still run. He can hear them, down there in the dark beneath the fading grandeur of London. But the London Underground is just a memory now, replaced by the Monorail that caters only to the very rich while the poor cower in its shadow. So where do the trains go? Who is riding on them? Rob wants to find out, but some mysteries aren't meant to be uncovered...
