Default S Stock


I presume you mean 1967 stock. *I assume that driving it in purely
manual mode in short formation won't be a problem?


I did. Oops!

The stock earmarked for the Island Line is either 1972 or 1973 stock.
The 1972 stock is almost identical to 1967 stock but has manual diving
controls.


But when with the 72/73 stock be replaced? I thought that they were
up for replacement around 2015, and surely by that time the IoW fleet
will be falling to bits. With the ex-Victoria vehicles becoming
available somewhat sooner, I'd have thought that they would be used.
