In 2014 I saw my penultimate Victoria Line tube 11001/02. On my infrequent trips to London I arrive at Euston and tend to use the Victoria Line for my onward journeys and always look out without success for 11003/04. That is until yesterday- I boarded the 1346 Stratford to Meridian Water intending to alight at Tottenham Hale. However as I had never been to Meridian Water (I did not even know where it was) and the PIS was showing two stops further I decided to stay on. Having lived in Ednonton many years ago and used Northumberland Park on many occasions I knew the line would run past the Victoria Line Depot at Northumberland Park. As we passed there was 11003/04 split in half outside one of the sheds. So I finally cleared the Victoria line stock travelled on a piece of new track from Tottenham Hale and visited a new Station. All because it was raining at Stratford.

Somewhere, not in London
Quite a funny thing your last two spots are the last two trains built.
The amount of mods and equipment on them to units they used to be really low mileage, hopefiully they caught up by now.
