I remember my paternal grandma used to live directly behind London Metro Line where it surfaced above ground.
Dreadful racket, flashes from wheel sparks from live rail, and lighting.
When she came to stay with us, she had to go to sleep with radio and light on, as she couldn't stand the silence, or total darkness.
Horses for courses.
