Easy one this - none.
A few stocks have the driver's cabs air conditioned though.

Sub surface lines hopefully will get it when the new stock comes in, starting on the Met in about 5 years and eventually extending to East London, Circle, H&C and District. Deep tube lines are much more difficult as there's not really anywhere for the heat to go once you've extracted it from the train.

Now this occured to me the other day. As all the refurb D stocks will have air con in the drivers cab, and there's more electrical equipment on the trains ie; the new information system - won't that cause an extra strain on the current supply when all the trains are done and in service? If so, are our supplies being upgraded like on the Network Rail Third rail network?

I can see the Evening Standard headlines now!!!
