The graph below shows the number of passenger railway journeys made in Great Britain between 1950 and 2004/5. 1pBN

The line graph illustrates the number of users among three different passenger railway systems (National rail network, London underground, and Light rail & metro systems) available in the UK between the years 1940 and 2004-2005. Overall, the London underground is the most used railway system in the UK and has increased over the years. Light rail and Metro systems are the least popular with the residents of the UK. The London underground had approximately made 725 million journeys in 1950 and remained stable with minor fluctuations. In 1970, the numbers slightly dipped to 550 and fluctuated before dropping further to 500 million by 1980. The popularity of the underground rose markedly to 775 by 1990 and has since risen steadily to 1050 by 2004/05. The National Rail Network made 1 billion trips in 1950 and rose to 1100 by 1956. It then suffered a steep decline, falling to 700 drivers by 1980. The numbers fluctuated a little but maintained an increasing trend to end with 1090 trips by the end of the time period. Light rail and metro systems were introduced only in the 1960s and were initially sparsely used, notably making no trips in 1980. Since then, it has increased consistently to 168 trips by 2004/05.
