I wonder if the current Northern line trains were built to allow for a
future conversion to Central line style automatic train operation.


yes they are, all the buttons are there, not sure if atp/ato contorllers
have been installed.


Good news!

I wouldn't hold your breath, '73 stock (Piccadilly) were built with the
buttons to allow for Victoria like ATO. they were never used and were taken
out (those that hadn't already fallen out) when the stock got refurbed.
