Does anybody know when the S7 stock comes to the Circle line? I belive it may be at the end of this year but i am not 100% sure?
Thanks

I seem to recall them being rolled out from the Summer to the Circle and Hammersmith & City Line as they use the same trains.
Though the roll out will not take place until each station has been modified for use with the new rolling stock. Other things include the positioning of the legacy signalling, accurate position detectors for the new trains, current rail upgrades, power upgrades etc etc.
It's not as simple as throwing in new trains, though we wished it was...

So it's been pushed back which comes as no surprise. |

S7s will be arriving before the year is out, and a handful will be in service for the Olympics.
Nothing has been pushed back. Test paths for the S7s were always going to be included in the December 2011 timetable change - which is what is happening.

Yes, sorry about that Charlie. It was unintentional although I shall now resign my job and launch my career as a stand up comic. "My name's Whistlekiller, you've all been wonderful, goodnight!!"  |
