Hi everyone,
I'm suprised nothing's appeared on here already, but yesterday
afternoon (Sun 20 Aug) two cars of old 1983 stock were hoisted up onto
a roof on Great Eastern St. There are a couple of photos on Flickr
he http://www.flickr.com/photos/jailuss...n/photostream/
It looks from the pictures as if the cars are the stub of old line into
Broad St station- but why are they there? Can anyone solve the mystery?

I wonder if they are the ones that were removed from Uxbridge sidings a
couple of weeks go. I assumed they were on a one way journey to some
scrap yard.

Yes they are those units.

Let's just say it's been a bloody long process to get rid of the damn
things. We're currently trying to get rid of the static graffiti
display at Cockfosters as well.
