When exiting an Underground train, it is considered polite to kiss the ground and intone with due reverence, 'Thank You, O Mighty Tube Deity, For The Gift Of My Safe Passage'. Foreign travellers should also tip the Tube driver.1
1: In the event that you cannot reach the front of the train before it pulls away from the station, you may report to a person behind the ticket counter giving the line you were traveling, the direction of travel, and your time of arrival when leaving your gratuity.
