Rolling stock Upgrades
London Transport uses a
variety of rolling stock because London Underground lines have differing
platform lengths, signaling systems and tunnel sizes. As part of our ongoing
Tube improvements, new S-stock trains will be operating across the entire
sub-surface network by the end of 2016.
