    Great clip! They were all EHO stock on the Bakerloo when I was in London and they had a real character about them…thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    As kids back in the early 70s, we used the Piccadilly Line in the Hounslow area. Mostly the trains were the silver 1958 stock, with occasionally red 1938 stock. Sometimes they would mix & match them. A bit of red and a bit of silver…We always headed for the silver train – DoH!!!

    They were never like that when in service. They were dirty, tatty and badly maintained.

    This was filmed 20.04.08. It is a special trip arranged by the London Transport Museum. I believe there is another one planned for 21st June, but unfortunately I won’t be able to make it.

    When did you record this video in real?

  15. AimalCool says:

    These trains are not in service, they were withdrawn in 1988.

    How could these trains be here again?
