Hi all,

I have been informed that a mock up of the 2009 stock is being
assembled outside Euston Station. That is all I know.


Does anyone know why 2009 stock is being named after the year when
it will be introduced, when previous stock seems been named after the
year when it was ordered (eg D78 stock introduced in 1980 and so on)?


As I remember it they call new stock after the year when they plan to
introduce it but sometimes get their sums wrong!
