I came across this strange 2-car ex-Victoria Line unit in the siding
at Acton Town today:

I see it's been discussed on District Dave's forum:

Despite the Victoria Line sign in one cab window, it seems they're
actually 72TS, and rather smart. From the discussion, it seems that
these surviving cars don't currently have a use.


Downloaded my online edition of the Railway Magazine last night.
In a very similar photo the unit is described as a tunnel cleaning train
formed of 67and 72 stock.
