Yes, it went to Oakwood and back.


I saw it last Tuesday when it wasn't supposed to be running! A lovely sunny day but no camera to hand.
If it was running it was supposed to be running - this is my point. Just because a TTN is/isn't issued it doesn't mean that it will/will not run. The TRV by its very nature runs as required.

Evening all.... there are a few sets I've not seen recently running on Intertube. Can anyone advise the status/location of sets:
21101, 21305, 21315, 21317, 21555, 21469 (believe at Ealing depot)
Also is the Bakerloo set 3260+3532 visible wherever it is located and also northern 542&543 sets.
I might head to London at the weekend to mop a few running sets up but try to pick off some longer out of service sets if possible. Many thanks

I think I've seen a couple of those in the past month, but I can't be 100% sure because I'm only really noting them if I ride on them or photograph them...

21469/470 is at Ealing Common depot, just about viewable a couple of weeks back from passing tube (southbound district line), it's the set that's parked against the trees behind the museum with graffiti visible down the side.

In addition to 21469 which is as per the earlier replies:

21101 Stopped at Neasden since February 2025
21305 Stopped at Ealing Common since April 2023
21315 Stopped at Upminster since June 2023
21317 Stopped at Upminster since May 2023
21555 Stopped at Neasden since January 2024
Bakerloo 3260 + 3532 stopped at Stonebridge Park since January 2025

Note however that I have not personally verified these locations!

I don't have the Northern line stopped car list (that fleet is maintained by a contractor). However, it appears that 51542 was last in normal service on 13th August 2023. There are a few sporadic workings recorded in May 2024, but as these amount to less than a complete round trip, I am tempted to regard these records as questionable. 51543 records seem to cease on 20th June 2023, suggesting that these two were not operating together at least after 51543 was stopped.

Thanks, I might have a run past the depot to see if it's visible

Brilliant, many thanks. I will most likely have a run past Ealing depot and depending on time maybe out to Upminster. There a few there that have been out of circulation for a while!

Thanks again, I did a run past yesterday and it was just visible through the trees absolutely covered in graffiti. Hopefully in time it will be repaired and put back into service although I think it's been out of service for circa 5 years.

Not much help I know, but unit 51543 is currently residing on 6 rd Golders Green Depot with various bits of equipment strewn around on the carriage floors: unfortunately there was no sign of it's sister unit (51542) as I was in a rush to get my train out of the said depot!

Hi All. I was travelling on the Bakerloo Line earlier today, which had 3240 on the front. Can anyone advise what was on the rear please?

I'm afraid I can't help but I've kept formation notes of all the Central sets I've seen in service and I've not seen 92106 out working since Aug 22 so looks like another one on the long-term out of use list for now.

I last recorded 92106 in service in 2023, but I don’t currently have access to centre car data to check.

I wouldn’t read too much into long periods of time for 92TS centre cars - there’s so many of them, I’ve gone years between riding on some that I know to be in service.
