The answer
4,000,000 journeys
Roughly 4M.
The Tube carries about 4 million passenger journeys on a typical weekday across 272 stations. It opened in 1863 and is the oldest underground railway in the world, which is also why so little of it is air-conditioned: there is no space in the tunnels for the heat to go.
