The A Stock (also known as the A60 and A62 Stocks) is the type of train used on the Metropolitan Line of the London Underground. It was built in two batches (A60 and A62) by Cravens of Sheffield in the early 1960s. The trains replaced all the previous stock then used on the Metropolitan Line (such as F Stock, P Stock, T Stock and locomotive hauled carriages). The A Stock started to be replaced by new trains of S Stock from 2010. The A Stock is currently the oldest type of train in passenger service on London Underground, and the last rolling stock to have independent motoring and braking controls. |
