Don't know about 92/95 stocks,but 96 stock has a lighting busline,you only need one jumper in or car on juice for all car lights to work.

The handwritten ones were the draft copies with all the crossings out and additions.Our first copy of WTT47 at Hainault was like that.These days now WTT's are done on computer, I don't suppose they exist anymore.

They did actually have one test running on the Victoria for a while,but obviously nothing came of it.

There are now only 12 trains outstanding+3 in work so the trains should pretty much be done by the end of the year,it's the Seltrac system itself that's having problems.It's possible that the December 2009 date for full ATO on the Jubilee will not be met.

If the Bakerloo goes to Watford working on a 10min service,it would need 7 extra trains,which would be a 41 train service.

They could possibly be used to replace the ageing Cl313's on FCC.

Unfortunately I left the Victoria Line before all the service enhancements,in the 70's the service was Brixton-Seven Sisters every 2mins,Walthamstow every 4 mins,off peak Walthamstow every 8 mins,Seven Sisters every 4 mins with a staff approx every 30 mins.The service was in effect split in two Brixton-Walthamstow & Brixton-Seven Sisters-Victoria-King's Cross-Brixton.Also in those days a train was stabled in 22 sdg at Brixton between the peaks.

There's also no signage to say where the ticket offices are,wish I had a £1 for every punter who arrives on EMT platform concourse looking for the ticket office and are redirected downstairs.

Yes,I believe they're called 62 & 63rds.It's only about every 4th train that carries on to Northumberland Pk,apart from stabling times of course.

They're still having problems with track/train interface.Most of the recent possessions have been to operate test trains,not for engineering work.

The EMT ticket office is underneath the Eurostar platforms,if you're coming from the Underground,walk past both sets of escalators up to the EMT platforms and the entrance to FCC and the EMT ticket office should be in front of you.
