Standard stock, surely? Very little 1938TS ran on the Piccadilly.

I wouldn't refer to 15 trains as "little". Besides, the line was also
home to the streamlined and unstreamlined 1935 stock for a time, so the
historical connection is solid.

If they did that, wouldn't the day have to be November 30, 2007?
