The City and South London Railway (CandSLR) is considered to be the first deep-level underground "tube" railway in the world, and also the first major railway in the world to use electric traction.
Originally intended to be operated with cable-hauled trains, the collapse of the cable contractor while the railway was under construction forced a change to electric traction, a still experimental technology at the time, before the line opened.
The diameter of the tunnels restricted the size of the trains and the small carriages with their high backed seating were nicknamed "padded cells".

I went on to explain that the only people who are in any way bound by a particular WIkiProject's standards are the people who have agreed to be part of the WikiProject.
Everyone else should feel free to add or edit articles the way they see fit and if that does not conform to a WikiProject's standards in a radical way then members of that project can reformat the additions to work best for their project.
Of course knowingly going against a WikiProject for combative reasons is still bad form (if you want to change the format you should try to convince the WikiProject members that it is a good idea).

Marx moved to London in May 1849, where he was to remain for the rest of his life.
He was particularly active in preparing for the annual Congresses of the International and leading the struggle against the anarchist wing led by Mikhail Bakunin (1814-1876).
