The tube lines word chain comments box.
Piccadilly line:
Hatton Cross Southgate, Hounslow West Turnpike Lane, Hyde Park Corner Russell Square, Acton Town Northfields, Chiswick Park Knightsbridge, Hammersmith Hounslow Central, Cockfosters South Kensington, Earls Court Turnham Green.
Those are pairs. They don't link up as a chain.
Circle: Move Euston Square to the end and put Edgware Road after that (9)

dg writes: Agreed, and updated, cheers.
Northern: Waterloo, Old Street, Tufnell Park, King’s Cross St Pancras, London Bridge, Edgware, Elephant & Castle, Embankment, Totteridge & Whetstone, Euston (10)
14 for Northern:
Waterloo, Oval, London Bridge, Elephant & Castle, Edgware, Embankment, Tooting Bec, Clapham South, High Barnet, Tufnell Park, King's Cross St Pancras, Stockwell, Leicester Square, Euston

dg writes: Added, thanks!
@BP: How can London Bridge come after Kings Cross St Pancras ?
18 for District:
Plaistow, Westminster, Ravenscourt Park, Kew Gardens, Southfields, Sloane Square, Earl's Court, Temple, Elm Park, Kensington Olympia, Aldgate East, Turnham Green, Notting Hill Gate, East Ham, Mansion House, Edgware Road, Dagenham East, Tower Hill

My best for Metropolitan is 10:
Chalfont & Latimer, Ruislip Manor, Ruislip, Pinner, Rickmansworth, Hillingdon, North Harrow, West Harrow, Wembley Park, King's Cross St Pancras

dg writes: That's my best too. Added, thanks!
I think I've been able to manage 17 for the Central line:
Ruislip Gardens, Shepherd's Bush, Hainault, Theydon Bois, St. Paul's, South Ruislip, Perivale, East Acton, Notting Hill Gate, Epping, Gants Hill, Leyton, Northolt, Tottenham Court Road, Debden, North Acton, Newbury Park

dg writes: That beats mine. Updated, thanks!
My best for Jubilee is a rather disappointing four stations:
Southwark, Kilburn, Neasden, North Greenwich

dg writes: Added thanks!
I think 4's the limit

Circle (11)

Blackfriars, St.James's Park, Kings Cross, South Kensington, Notting Hill Gate, Euston Square, Embankment, Tower Hill, Liverpool Street, Temple, Edgware Road

dg writes: That's a better start than we had before. Updated, thanks!
@kev I have literally no idea what happened there! Poor copy and pasting around when changing my own order.
Piccadilly: Cockfosters, South Ealing, Green Park, Knightsbridge, Ealing Common, Northfields, South Harrow, Wood Green, North Ealing, Gloucester Road (10)

dg writes: Added, thanks (but beatable).

@BP: I got one wrong too and had to ask dg to remove it. You could have fixed yours with Stockwell but Ali beat you to it.
Please add Eastcote after Knightsbridge (11)

dg writes: Added. Still beatable.
My best for Piccadilly is 18:
Boston Manor, Ruislip Manor, Ruislip, Piccadilly Circus, South Harrow, Wood Green, North Ealing, Green Park, King's Cross St. Pancras, Sudbury Hill, Leicester Square, Eastcote, Earl's Court, Turnpike Lane, Ealing Common, Northfields, South Ealing, Gloucester Road

dg writes: That's one more than I got!
Added, thanks.
(but I see a way to lengthen the start)

My best for Victoria is 4:

Pimlico, Oxford Circus, Seven Sisters, Stockwell

Green Park, King's Cross St. Pancras, Seven Sisters, Stockwell

Finsbury Park, King's Cross St. Pancras, Seven Sisters, Stockwell

dg writes: Added, thanks!
My best for H&C is 7:
Plaistow, Whitechapel, Ladbroke Grove, East Ham, Moorgate, Euston Square, Edgware Road

dg writes: Added, thanks!
If you'll allow me to use "four" instead of "4", then:
Piccadilly, building on Ali's but with a slightly longer start: (this would be 19)
Hammersmith, Heathrow Terminal Four, Ruislip Manor, Ruislip,...
I'm not allowing 'Four', but there is another Piccadilly line station which fits the same gap uncontroversially.
Also, the longest possible on the Waterloo and City:

There you go. Done.
Re: Piccadilly:
Hammersmith, Hyde Park Corner, Ruislip Manor, Ruislip...and continue with Ali's above.
Done!

I have no chains longer than those already appearing in the post. So we might be done... or we might not...
Can we add to the end of Piccadilly: Down Street, Turnham Green. You didn't say it had to be a current tube map.
@kev Yep, Stockwell is the errant one that I deleted by accident, but the inclusion of Tooting Bec by Ali was a masterstroke that eluded me.
All this, and not once has Mornington Crescent appeared!
