You could try a book I've just finished, "Tunnel Vision" by Keith Lowe. It's about a London Underground enthusiast who makes a bet with a fellow anorak that he can travel the full length of the tube network in just one day - the day before he is due to go to Paris to marry his girlfriend.
Not surprisingly he is delayed by faulty trains, missed connections and so on, nevertheless, I found it entertaining, even quite touching in parts. It's not a significant book, but its more deserving of a read than some of the reader views at amazon.co.uk make out.
Not so funnily my own train home was delayed three days in row whilst I was reading this, which suggests I need to be very careful choosing what I read while commuting.
