5060 and 5062 50 years passenger service yesterday 23/12./quote] Mind you, 5060 spent a long time out of service in late 1975/early 76 being fitted with the trial D&M brake equipment, then I guess another period having it removed and the standard brake controls refitted in the 1980s(? not sure when, I helped make it work, not remove it!). When it had the D&M equipment it could only operate as a 4 car, so must have done a lot of Chesham service. |

You're so right about 5060. I remember thinking at the time when I first started observing A stock that 5060 didn't exist! As you say, eventually it did appear and T60 (Chesham Shuttle) was where you would find it. Of course, not being a de-icing unit, there were several months it couldn't perform this duty. Another place to then see it was the ELL when A stock formed this service from 1977.
5000 is still formed up with 5231 - T407 today (revised train numbering today/tomorrow). One update: 5138+5153.

31/12/2011: Last night I went into town and was lucky enough to see..
5149+5040
5107+5034
5213+5076
5191+5062
5097+5044
and was fortunate to ride in 5072 which was attached to 5183. 5072 still has the old maps which is a clear indication it only has days left. It was quite a sad journey, and will certainly be the last time I ever travel in 5072.

I has been down to go along with 5074, 5191 and 5227 for a while. 5074 did actually last year but the other three units were kept due to the problems with the S stock.

I was on 5191 the other day which has been fitted with the new maps and I remember thinking 'why have they bothered to fit the new maps given this unit's imminent withdrawal'. So, you never know! Somebody will hopefully advise us of the revised scrap move timings as they will inevitably have changed as a result of WTT331's introduction. Of course, it may be that the resumption of withdrawals will see them taken out by train. We wait and see |

Saw them at West Harrow at lunchtime. Was just thinking it's nice to see the oldest service unit out and about. Also the last of the 'black roof' trains.

Yes, I noted 5010+5227 on the way home earlier and wondered whether 5227's time was up over the next day or so. 5010's imminent departure was obviously more of a surprise.
Couple of changes also noted on the way home: 5016+5225 and 5050+5116
