Further to the West Ham 1976 press cuttings and also the rebuilding of locos L8 & L9, I've found yet another unexpected press cutting from in inside cover of an eBay purchase - London Transport Railways Album by Chris Heaps from the Ian Allen stable and first published in 1978. This article comes from The Sun and is dated Monday 9 May 1983 and is about the Mastermind winner, Christopher Hughes, a Piccadilly Line T/O: www.flickr.com/photos/cjw2/31429898596/in/album-72157673708155911/There are lots of " Going loco" and " started, so I'll finish" tabloid style puns/comments... and at the bottom he can be seen leaning out of the cab of DM184

The celebrity who might do quite well on LU at Mastermind is Jeremy Corbyn. Was he at one time a member of this Forum, or when you could post anonymously as "guest"?
