London Underground 1935 Stock

Passenger Rolling Stock and High-Speed Trainsets

The London Underground 1935 Stock was an experimental tube train design by Metropolitan Cammell, built as twelve two-car units marshalled into four six-car trains, which served as the prototypes for the later 1938 Stock. Three of the trains had streamlined cars, based on a trial with a Standard Stock control trailer built by Metropolitan Cammell, and the fourth had flat fronts. They were the first tube cars built for London Underground with the motors and control equipment under the frame, which freed the space behind the cabs for passengers. All cars were motor cars with Crompton Parkinson Type C200 motors, each rated at 138 horsepower. They were eventually withdrawn between 1972 and 1976.
