Last time I flew through Heathrow, I spent an hour and a half going from one gate to another, moving about on literally every kind of transport known to man except watercraft and spaceships. After flying in on an aircraft, I took some combination of train, bus, electric cart, another bus, I think another train, moving sidewalk, and at least one or two other things.
Nearly half of the transit time was spent inside some kind of vehicle in a dark tunnel, an industrial looking processing center, crawling around dimly lit stairwells, and or other such place that clearly said to me "you should not be seeing this stuff! Pay no attention to all this stuff behind the curtains!"
It was ridiculous and absurd and would have been humorous if I hadn't been in a mad dash the entire time trying to make my connection.
After escaping on yet another aircraft I mulled for quite a while over what kind of madness could have come up with such an absolutely insane way of moving from one part of a facility to another...a distance I could have crossed by foot in less than 15 minutes.
