What about the A stock going to Amersham, Watford and Uxbrige. They
must be 44 years old at least by now.

Those, like the rest of the Underground passenger fleet that wasn't
replaced, were refurbished in the early to mid 1990s, and are still
perfectly acceptable, if a little "lively" in ride due to not having air
suspension.

They're not that bad once there's a few people in - it's only when they're
empty that they get bouncy. As a place in which to while away an hour,
they're preferable to some of the more cramped stock on other lines.
