Questions
Where should we meet if one of us is in Clapham High St and the other in Whitechapel?
Embankment is the fairest Tube station to meet between Clapham High St and Whitechapel: about 16 minutes from Clapham High St and 14 minutes from Whitechapel. It balances the two journeys so neither of you travels much longer than the other.
Can we start from a whole line instead of a station?

How do you work out the times?
