I loved the fact that at any speed the A stock would always soothingly rock from side to side which I miss on the S stock

RIP 1967 A stock

Yes there are 142 seats less...you have 306 seats and you can seat on all of them because is and end-to-end walk train. In the old trains you have access to a limited number of seats (that are in 1 carrige). So the correct comparison is there are 10 or 20 or 30 seats to 306. It' s measured car by car not by train. So the new train is like a whole carrige:)). S Stock rocks! The problem is other european cityes have trains like this before 1800 b.c. (not but still much earlier than London)

This is a well-done video, whether S stock trains are better or not. It was easy to see differences between two.
I think I like the older one, by the way.

I love to have a ride on these new trains. :-) Hopefully I should when I go to London in a couple of weeks time to connect en-route to Yorkshire.

I think I just came into shot at 5:23 boarding the Uxbridge.
the best i know with the timetable is that it makes a trip from Wembley Park up to Watford on weekdays at about 2pm, and does the return trip (first stop Croxley) at about 7pm in the evening. so just take a ride up to Watford any weekday afternoon and see if its there!

as far as i'm aware the trains that they'll roll out of the Circle/District/H&C will be the same, but with even LESS seats. yes the new seats are not as sqiushy and comfortable as on the old trains - we make that clear witt the 'snooze' part of the video.
vicki had not ever written down any train numbers ever last time i checked.
oh, and demanding that i reply quicky is never going to make me reply quickly. there IS a special 's-stock' timetable in effect right now though, yes.
