+AD4- +AD4- AFAIK they were prototype stock for the 92 stock now running on the
+AD4- +AD4- central line and they were full working trains designed to test out
+AD4- +AD4- passenger reaction to them.

+AD4- I can remember going to look at the prototpe trains parked up for the
+AD4- public to look around, in about 1989 or 1990 iirc. I think this would
+AD4- have been at Woodford, certainly somewhere at that end of the Central
+AD4- Line. After wandering around each of the three different designs we were
+AD4- given feedback forms to fill in.
+AD4-

yes, I too went to see them at Woodford, on my way home from school.
