A technical question about the compatability of 2009 stock and 1967 stock on the Victoria line...
If the new trains have superior acceleration compared to the old stock, how does this work with regard to regulating frequency on the line? I heard that the old trains and new trains can't be run in automatic mode at the same time?
I presume that the new stock is driven in 'manual' mode so to fit in with the frequency of the existing trains and to avoid bunching and catching up too quickly with the train in front
Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I'm intrigued.
