Default Which Stock?

What I didn't know till I saw a video was that the 1960/1938 unit(s)
ended up doing the Ongar before it closed.

Epping to Ongar was a normal 62 stock single four car unit in the late
sixties, both of the intermediate stations were still open. I believe
that a single unit was used because the line was single end feed from
Epping and a dual unit eight car train would have caused too great a
voltage drop at Ongar.
