ALMOST kO YEARS On Friday I'lth April 1978, the last 1938 Tube stock ran in passenger service on the Northern Line, this date being just short of kO years since the stock was first introduced on the line on 30th June 1958. The last train, running as train 121 comprised cars 10182-012275-12127-11182+10203-012205-11203 and worked:- 07.17 Morden Depot to Edgrrare 08.4o Edgxv^are to Morden 09,54 Morden to Mill Hill East 11.00 Mill Hill East to Morden 14.34 Morden to Mill Kill East 15.40 Mill Hill East to Tooting Bdy. l6o47 Tooting Bdy, to Edgware 17.56 Edgware to Golders Green A3.1 journeys vrere via Banku It was also schoduled to work the 12,l4 Morden to Mill Rill East and the 13«>20 return, but this was cancelled due to no guard being available, On arrival at Edgware at 17.49 the train carried a display in the offside cab window 'the last red train on the Northern Line' and chalked on the side of iOl82 was 'silver trains out,' In the destination cabinet was displayed '1938-1978', On the last trip from Edgware, the leading car (11203) was filled with enthusiasts (standing room only) and included Mr,J,Greame Bruce (Chief Operating Manager) and Mr^G.Hafter (Rolling Stock Engineer), On arrival at Golders Green, all passengers and enthusiasts detrained and the Station Manager announced over the public address that they 'had tx'avelled on the last red train in service on the Northern Linso' The train then preceded to Golders Green depot. It is interesting to note that Driving Motor car III82 of the last train is to be preserved by London Transport in their collection at Covent Garden, after restoration at Acton Works. Although 1938 tube stock has now finished normal passenger service on the Northern Line, all is not yet lost I On Sunday 4th June I978, London Transport proposes to run an enthusiasts farewell tour of 1938 tube stock on the Northern Line, It will include all of the Northern Line, and interesting points of travel V7ij.l be reversing in Morden depot, round the Kennington loop, reversing at Park Junction and running in normal passenger service between Finchley Central and Mill Hill East, (the CP stock tours of 1977 had a similai- arrangement on the single line between Chalfont and Chesham), The final part of the tour xvill be to Cockfosters via the Kings Cross loop. The tour will start from Goldors Green at about O9.5O and vrill finish at Finsbury Park at about 17.30, with a midday lunch br-eak at High Barnete 436 CAR PARK ALTERATIONS AT HARROW-ON-THE-HILL From Monday 3rd April 1978, revised car parking arrangements were introduced at Harrow-on the-Hill station. The car park, which is always full on Mondays to Saturdays, caused problems to regular car park users holding car park season tickets, if they arrived after aboiit 08,30. To assist them, the part adjacent to the substation has been set aside for regular car park season ticket holders and a manually operated rising arm barrier has been installed at the entrance. The holders of car park season tickets have been issued with a key to open the barrier, thus ensuring that a space is always available to them for parking. The cost of this facility is £37 per year plus 50p for the key. The rest of the car parking spaces at Harrow-on-the- Hill are used in the aormal way, on a first come, first parked basis, and pay their fee at the ticket office. INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENTS AT KINGS CROSS Details have been announced of alterations and improvements to the interchange at Kings Cross between the LT station and the City Widened Lines station located in Pentonville Road, and is due to be completed in 19&2. It will include a new deep level subvray to and from the Piccadilly and Victoria lines. The coitipletion of this work will coincide with the introduction of electric train services on the LJIR between Bedford and St, Pancras and Moorgate, work of which is now under way. The entire scheme will be signalled from a new power signal box at present under construction at Weat Harapstead, and will include the City VJidened Lines from Kentish Town to Moorgate, At present, this part of the C.W.L, is signalled by LT with a signal box at Kings Ci-oss and regulating room at Farringdon (which also controls Barbican and Moorgate), Track maintenance of this section- was transferred to British Rail LMR in January 1973. The existing Kings Cross C.W^.L„ station is served only by three trains in the morning peak in the up direction to set down only, and in the evening peak none of the three trains from Moorg?ite in the down direction now stop there, thus running non-stop from Farringdon, The cost of the scheme is i,k,km of which London Transport are to pay £1C4KJO In addition to the new subway already mentioned, Kings Cross C.VJaL, station is to be rebuilt and renamed Kings Cross Midland. Proposed services over the C.V7oL. section are to be at 20 irinute intervals in the off peak, and up to 12 trains an hour at peak hoturs. 437 FIRST CLASS ON THE DISTRICT him On Sunday 9th April 1978, London Transpoi^t converted points at Putney Bridge to the 'chairlock' type, requiring a suspension of the District Line service between Parsons Green and East Putney, From the start of traffic until about 12,30, District Line trains reversed west to east at Parsons Green via the sidings. LT provided a replacement bua service between Parsons Green and East Putney, calling intermcdlatelT- nt Putney Bi^idges Between B;a3t Putney and Wimbledon, the Southern Region of British Rail provided two trains to run at 20 minute intervals substituting for the LT service and stopping at Southfields and Wimbledon Park, Southern Region trains run en.pty between East Putney and Wimbledon on weekdays, bat rarely in passenger service. The stock used on this replacement service comprised one k-CEP unit 7198 and one 4-VEP unit 7733, both types having through corridors and first class accommodation I No first class bookings exist between East Putney and Wimbledon, The S.Ro trains reversed at East Putney east to west (or, in BR terms, up line to down line) in the normally unused up SR platform. As there is no 'wrong road' starting signal for trains to proceed back to Wimbledon, a handsignaltnan was provided to 'flag' the trains back onto the down line. ^iTnen the normal LT ser^'ice was resumed at about 12.30, the two SR trains returned to the depot at Wimbledon, MODEILING QUESTIONNAIRE The responce to the questionnaire which came xvith Underground News No,1885 can only be described as rather disaapointing, I would like to thank the SEl'^N people who did reply as their activities and suggestions w^ere very interesting and helpful, I can only conclude that spany modellers do exist somewhere, but are either too busy modelling or are unable to afford a stamp duo to the high cost of materials and/or beer, I v/ould still like to hear from anybody who has not replied yet. Everybody w^ho,replied was interested in modelling working rolling stock and the subjects x'aried from battery locomotives to live steam models of L90 and Met.4-4-03, A member living in America seems to be particularly active and. has built a complete train of R stock in HO gauge? perhaps a trip across the Atlantic may be the key to encouraging prospective modellers ? Suggestions on what the modelling secretary should try to do included co-ordinating between modellers and encouraging manufactiurers to produce models of LoT, stock.

  • Retro Underground: the Seventies to the Noughties – 3
    RETRO UNDERGROUND: THE SEVENTIES TO THE NOUGHTIES – 3. OTHER EVENTS by Tony Morgan My earliest memories of the Underground are during the Second World War travelling from Kingsbury on the Bakerloo Line into London and sometimes on to Kent on the Southern Railway to visit relations. In 1968, after ten years of driving to North Acton, I started commuting in to Great Portland Street. While I was there the second section of the Victoria Line opened as far as Warren Street. One lunchtime I decided to have a quick trip on it. The 1967 Stock train came in to reverse back. The Train Operator was standing in the cab with his back to the direction of travel as the ATO stopped the train. Maybe this was being done to build confidence in the new control system. Travelling home one day from Great Portland Street I saw the latest LT Magazine on display in the ticket office. I then started buying it on a regular basis. The front cover of that first edition had a photograph of the C69 Stock about to be introduced on the Circle Line on it. From that magazine I found out about ‘The Last Drop’ event at Neasden Depot, on Sunday 6 June 1971 advertised, which celebrated the end of use of steam locomotives for engineers’ operations. There I joined the Society because of their Sales Stand. This was my first organised event. At this event all three remaining locomotives were in steam. L94 hauled a rake of engineers’ vehicles from the City and pulled into one of two Klondyke Sidings in Neasden depot.

    Safety, Sustainability and Human Resources Panel Date: 17 November 2016 Item: Quarterly Health, Safety and Environment Performance Reports 2016/17 1 Summary 1.1 The TfL Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Performance report describes the HSE performance across London Underground, Surface Transport and London Rail for Quarter 2 2016/17, 26 June – 17 September inclusive and performance across Crossrail for Quarter 1 2016/17 1 April – 25 June. 1.2 The Panel’s input on the development of the content of the report and identification of any topics for more in depth discussion at future meetings for inclusion of the forward planner is also sought. 2 Recommendation 2.1 The Panel is asked to note this paper. 3 Background 3.1 There were no accidental customer fatalities on the TfL public transport network. A total of 13 fatalities are attributed to; suicide (nine) and pre existing medical issues (four). There were no employee or contractor fatalities in the quarter. 3.2 Slips, trips and falls continue to be the main cause of customer injury across the network, with incidents continuing to occur on escalators, stairs, the platform train interface (PTI), and on buses. Programmes to militate against customer injury remain on target and within budget. 3.3 For London Underground, PTI performance continues as modelled. This is as a result of a change in the PTI profile due to the introduction of new rolling stock and increase in customers. The majority of incidents result in minor injury. Our mitigation programmes continue on plan and within budget. 3.4 The overall figure for employee injury continues to improve, however, slips, trips and falls resulting in musculoskeletal injury remain as the main cause of injury.

  • London's Transport Through the Lens of Jason Cross
    THROUGH THE LENS – LONDON’S TRANSPORT THROUGH THE LENS OF JASON CROSS by Jason Cross A report of the LURS meeting at All Souls Clubhouse on Tuesday 14 May 2019 Jason began the meeting by informing the audience that some subjects were away from London Underground but 70% were related. Jason advised that he did not use a drone but a 10m pole for the aerial shots. The camera at the end is connected by a cable to a tablet which is used to take the photographs. Jason split the photographs in his presentation under the following headings: S STOCK MOVES • Melton Mowbray station with a pair of class 20s taking an S8 unit to Old Dalby for ATO testing. • An S7 unit at Old Dalby with temporary ATO equipment bolted to the front. • An unexpected shot of an S Stock unit being hauled by a class 08 diesel shunter at Old Dalby. • Also at Old Dalby Jason captured a Crossrail Aventra class 345 on test. • Units are moved from Bombardier at Derby to Old Dalby and then on to London usually by the Rail Operations Group (ROG). The next photograph showed top and tailed ROG class 37s on a Class 710 London Overground unit. • Jason then captured a ROG class 37 hauling a Crossrail class 345 at Harrowden Junction. • Two more shots then showed class 345s at Liverpool Street and Paddington where they are in service until Crossrail opens. RAILTOURS, CHARTER AND HERITAGE TRAINS • Class 87 number 87.002 was shown at Paddington on a GBRf railtour. This locomotive, which is usually used on the empty stock of the Caledonian Sleeper, was only the second electric locomotive to be seen at Paddington.
