The last day of '67 stock passenger operation between Seven Sisters

line, and finish at Seven Sisters at 19:32.


While I was on the last trains to North Woolwich and Shoreditch,
somehow I could see less appeal in the Victoria Line, in the peak,
in summer, with extra trainspotters.


I don't want to miss the end of A stock on the Met. Anyone any idea
when that will be?


Presumably years away, especially if new deliveries are diverted to the
District line?
