A posting in another place suggested the A stock might be getting restricted to the Uxbridge line. Is that the case or do they still make forays out to Amersham? I'm only asking as I'm planning to take my last ride on one, on Friday, and I'm hoping to 'bookend' the day out in London with it - I'm staying with parents out towards Amersham.

They sure are, the few that are left work everyware on the Met, but it will be more a case of luck now to get one going where you want it to be. |

5060 + 5090 were on Amersham all stations 413 yesterday till they got put in the depot, and reformed into 5060 + 5022 came out for the evening peak running fast Amersham and all stations back.
Even though I live on the Uxbridge line, I would not want that to happen. A stock are more suited for the long distance Amersham/Chesham runs anyway.

Which raises the possibility of a third pair in service all day?

So, it seems if anyone is planning on getting an A Stock that 444 would seem to be a pretty safe bet at the moment.

If only they kept one or two A stocks in service like they do with the route masters. It'll be a shame that the next time I visit Londkn, there won't be an a stock  |
