Mate of mine used to commute to London from Colchester. Would regularly get bladdered after work on Thurs/Fri, miss his stop and wake up in Clacton, sometimes Ipswich, once even Norwich.
Best one though, he got on an overground in the middle of London, steaming drunk, thinking it was taking him to Liverpool Street. You can see where this is going...
Woke up in Liverpool Lime Street!

Yes loads of times on the London underground. Although as the saying goes, np on the circle line
Pah! You’d be fine as they go round in circles.
One early morning on New Year’s day in Dublin, I got woken up by a guard just before the train I’d crashed out on set off to the west coast of Ireland. That could have been inconvenient with a morning ferry to catch back to Holyhead.

The Circle line hasn’t been a circle for years. It’s more of a spiral now.

On a slightly different note. My drunken son in law phoned his wife,(my daughter) to pick him up from Thetford station after going to a Man U v Chelsea game. He was actually in Stretford at the time. The taxi fare back to Suffolk was not cheap.

Yes from Watford I just saw a load of Town fans standing on the platform and thought they must be going the same way as me,this was after a day on the lash,I ended up somewhere else can’t remember now.
Norwich away,I ended up in Chelmsford I should have got off at Colchester North,I’ve also had people give me a shove to wake me up before.
QPR away,again I fell asleep on the train and ended up in Frinton on Sea.

If we're talking underground a mate of mine feel asleep on the Victoria line on his way to Walthamstow and woke up in Brixton.
Last time I got the train back from PR I tried to change carriages at Colchester to sit with some mates. Wasn't quick enough and had to wait on the platform for half an hour at 11pm.
