Page 6 of the above-mentioned Bombardier pages has some interior shots.
Lots of
space for adverts above the windows, but also what looks like full-width
passageways between carriages. With so many seats removed, it looks very
spacious indeed. It mentions the carriages are for Bakerloo-Victoria-Central.


ISTR the fully articulated (space train) concept had been abandoned for
the Victoria line in favour of more traditional stock.


Thankfully it looks like they've also abandoned that stupid idea that was
mooted of converting the victoria line to overhead pickup.
