That's a really good picture, I didnt realise how small they were.

Did you never ride those on the Oiccadilly or Central Lines?

BTW, if you enclose a long URL in ..., readers won't have to edit it
back together.

Alternatively, use Tinyurl to give you a short one that will be
redirectedto the original.

Yes, it's quite a reminder.

And it's worth remembering that the modern-day successors to those little
and large trains share tracks and platforms every day at Acton Town, Ealing
Common and from Rayner's Lane to Uxbridge. It's a similar situation from
Kensal Green to Harrow and Wealdstone.

I did, occasionally, when they had a life extension, but more often on the
very similar 59/62 stocks.

Note that that's exactly what I did. It works in the original post, but not
in replies.

Yes, url shorteners are inherently capable of collecting data on who is
looking at which [page of] a website. Not only does that give each user
a history, but if someone was interested they could link together all
the people who looked at one particular page.
