The effect of motion on the Underground roundel on the RH side of the carriage is rather fascinating. This seems to be going fast – is it passing through or is that a really slow shutter speed?
Whatever the situation, the end result looks very good. My only criticism is that you make the Tube look so clean, bright, modern and efficient!! Mind you, some stations have been improved considerably and with new rolling stock this is plausible.
The colour layers are here to be enjoyed.

As John says: a gross misrepresentation of the London Tube system :-)
The central figure holds the picture very well and makes this about more than just the colours. The yellow line is perhaps a slightly too bright underlining of the whole event.

With all those horizontals the vertical passengers do become more important. Good that you can see them in detail. I don’t find the yellow (or white) line underlining the event but act more as a step to launch you into the detailed background. The white arrow in the flooring along the bottom is also a strong visual pointer.
