A Moorgate to London Bridge Tunnel (Old chestnut)

Hmmm.... I thought the W&C tunnels were big enough to take regular stock... Thought I had vague memories of NSE trains running on the line before the management went over to LUL, but could well be wrong. They use similar stock to that in use on the Central. When delivered it was in NSE livery, as was the previous 1941 stock IIRC. |

It would only have been painted into NSE livery at the very end of its life. ( know that's what you meant, but it isn't what you said). Incidentally, the original W&C stock was painted salmon pink! -- Bill Hayles http://www.rossrail.com |
