I dug out some old(ish) pix of how things were just before closure in 2007:

Personally, I'd love to see some pictures of the East London line when operated by 38TS. Was there any particular reason why this came about?

Er.. there may be others who remember the story better than I, but ISTR that the WTT before the '38 stock came in had CP stock 5 car trains, and the WTT before that had 4 car Q stock

'38 stock was in for only one WTT - A242 May '74 to July '77.

If we can have A 244/R 246^A, ODX 246^A/R 246^B, A 246^B/ROD 1, OD 1/ROD 2 then I'm going to have
A (7)88/R (7)90^A, NHX (7)90^A/R (7)90^B, A (7)90^B/RNH 1, NH 1/RNH 2 and hang the consequences!
