Refurbished article

[edit]

I have reformatted the article, and also cleaned it up, it was a complete and utter mess. Lenny 14:21, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Derailment?

[edit]

I found some data on a fan wiki which states that the 1986 sets were withdrawn into storage because of a derailment, does anyone have sourced data to back this up so it can be added to the article.

I think that they were withdrawn because they had served their purpose - to evaluate various designs and equipment types for what became the 1992 Stock. Two of the trains would eventually have been incompatible with the new stock, and the third, even if compatible, would have been non-standard and therefore of higher maintenance cost. So it was simply more cost-effective to withdraw them. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 10:32, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Blue unit being favoured?

[edit]

How is the blue vehicle being favoured by the public to be made into the 1992 stock? The body shape is completely different.

The 92 stock is more based off the red or the green LDas12345 (talk) 18:16, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
