Loved this! A bit deep to put district and circle as options on the same question. Don’t they use the same rolling stock and cover very similar stations? I found Bakerloo was the easiest to identify.
Jubilee I found pretty easy too

#32It seems a little unfair to include the circle and metropolitan lines as they use the same rolling stock and run on the same tracks in the centre of the city.

#33Pretty cool —- should do it for NYC subways!
Boston T would be a better one as each of the colour lines are significantly different from each other, especially concerning green line trolleys. Even having not lived there for a number of decades I could probably still pick out at least red and green line. I might struggle to pick apart orange and blue line from each other as they are pretty similar trains, but I never spent significant time on that line... (My dad was a complete train nut and spent much of his spare time audio recording train rides around the world and when we lived in Boston, the local subway got the bulk of his attention. Here in the UK his hobby even got picked up by various TV companies and he got brought onto various talk shows to demonstrate his "Blind trainspotting" prowess by identifying various trains from their sound. All a ruse of course but it was a fun gimmick for a couple of years.)

#36I got 6 out of 9 and haven’t lived there in 10 years. Felt some nostalgia hearing some of them though!!!
