Default LU A stock over NR routes

Digressing somewhat....

I'm guessing that when the A stock finally bows out, there will be
enthusiast interest in a farewell tour. But can the A stock venture onto any
non-Met metals? For example, do they 'fit' east of Aldgate on the District,
if the doors are kept closed to avoid short platform issues? Otherwise, it
will be a farewell wholly over familiar territory, which would be
appropriate but not very novel.*

Do the London Transport Museum have plans to preserve an A stock unit, or at
least a driving car?

* But still more interesting than any 1967 stock farewell tour, which I
guess would be restricted to Vic metals?
