Piccadilly?

[edit]

Why is the 1973 Stock red? 85.164.158.103 (talk) 13:08, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Victoria

[edit]

Why is the '09 stock listed as current? They are not running in passenger service! Chrisfow (talk) 23:00, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Done It's been corrected. Uninformed people seems to enjoy messing up the table with total rubbish. I don't know the refurbishment dates for the 1967 Stock though- does anyone know them? Oliver Fury, Esq. message • contributions 23:17, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
1967 Victoria Line stock was refurbished in 1988. Source - Underground Movement by Paul Moss published by Capital Transport Publishing 2000 p182. I haven't edited as I have no idea what I am doing yet. Litvore (talk) 11:37, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merging London Underground steam locomotives

List of LTPB locomotives

[edit]

Copied from article While I'm sure this can be sourced, I think it would be better as a list article. However, at the moment, I'm unable to source it. Edgepedia (talk) 20:55, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

London Transport numbered all of its service stock locomotives into one unified series, regardless of the type.

Thanks, I've split the table to List of London Transport locomotives, hope the article name is not controversial. This article is already over 6,000 words, and doesn't want to get much longer. Edgepedia (talk) 06:22, 27 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Current Stock Capacity

[edit]

At the moment [1] the capacity of the 2009 tube stock on the Victoria line is 1164, more than the sub-surface S stock, which is more than a little dubious. The numbers in that column were taken from the old TfL web pages; I've just linked to archives for each one. This is why it says at the bottom of the table "Capacity is based on four passengers a square metre."

However, we can get this information from the FOI data sheets referenced in the article (and listed below)

67TS 72TS 73TS 92TS
(Central) 		92TS
(W&C) 		95TS 96TS D S7 S8 2009TS
Maximum observed standing capacity (5 customers per m2) 661 583 570 775 370 552 730 685 853 778 734
Maximum full load standing capacity (6 customers per m2) 793 700 684 930 444 662 875.16 821 876
Theoretical crush standing capacity (7 customers per m2) 926 816 798 1085 518 773 1021.41 958 1218 1112 1028
Theoretical design crush standing (E6325 A2) 1174

As the purpose of the table is to compare stock, and we only have figures for 5 and 7 passengers per square metre, we need to go with one of those. I suggest the 7 passengers per square metre figure. Edgepedia (talk) 18:17, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
