Metropolian Line question

With the advent of the A60 and A62 stock, scrapping started in
either 1961 or 1962 (I'm not sure). The last Uxbridge service was
on 15th March 1963, and the last of all on the East London line on
7th September 1963.
My ride on the East London line must have been only a few weeks before
the end of the service.
It's a shame none were preserved. They were unique, quite *[un]*like
anything before or since.
I'll second that. At that time my normal mode of travel was
wooden-bodied Q-converted District stock, and I also sampled early
standard tube stock somewhere (with centre door posts). That must have
been on the GNCR.
