It's with great pleasure that we announce the immediate launch of

Let's Train: London Underground "Mind the Gap" Edition

We recreated the London Underground network of 11 lines and 270 stations as a community giveaway train network on Steamgifts. Every station (giveaway) is on one of the lines, and links to the previous and next station, as well as to all other lines that stop in the same station (we have multiple GAs for stations that share multiple lines). That way we ended up with 380 giveaways from 66 contributors for the complete London Underground network.

Enter the London Underground here, and remember to MIND THE GAP!

After less than two days of Early Access we finally mounted the last few remaining signposts, and worked tirelessly to address all the bugs and issues reported by our 47 early adopters, including how to deal with blacklisted GAs and bringing the site back online (thanks cg!).

Oh, a quick note for those who tend to get lost easily: we recommend the official tube map as your guide through the London Underground network.

How long will you be open for the public?

Until Saturday 17. October.

Thank you

Thanks all who commented on the original thread, and specifically a very big thank you to the group of people who worked so hard these two weeks to make this happen: Nudiustertian, Momo1991, eeev, trentjaspar2, adam1224, Bloodcloak, josgba2002, Sinovera, SexyBudgie. Please consider them for a spot on your whitelist, even if only temporarily during this event!

And once you're through, consider sitting through the Daily (Mail) History Lesson just for fun :-)

I think I've explored pretty much all of the network by now... at least cursory... Except for the places that ask me for a password...

Wow. Just wow! oO
The mind boggles at the amount of effort and planning and communication that went into this. I wonder if anything will ever top this in the next few months/years.
Simply amazing :)

This is crazy fun, also bringing back memories of running around London. Now I want to visit again.

Jeebus, this'll take a while to navigate so I'll do it later o.O

I'm guessing the planning part was done when I had issues with my PC and no SG access. I would've loved to contribute as well.

Just finished mapping out the train for a second time (yes, I visited every station twice). First version of my map was incredibly sloppy, so decided to re-do it from scratch. Now it's color-coated and organized neatly ^_^

Obviously a lot of work went into it, so massive kudos to all the organizers, as well as everyone who helped with the stations

ALL OF YOU ROCK Per3zat and Co.!

What an amazing ride, at first I was like "meh, too complicated", but as a gamer it went like "ok, just a couple of clicks... just one more... oh I can change line here? hmmm... crap where did those 20min go?"

Thanks for this from the bottom of my gap, I mean, heart.

Thanks for all the work. Finished my ride, found some hidden stations, did not found any passwords, now it is time to get away from SG for a while and relax.
