Rail adhesion (A Stock) unit was out on the Metropolitan Line this morning.
Secondly, I finally saw the 'Selective-Door Opening' feature (something along those lines) in effect today, on the S8 Stock. The doors stay shut unless you press the 'Open' button- meant the train was lovely and today. The 1996TS could do with having this feature...
Finally, a Jubilee Line train terminating at West Ham (one of the rarer destinations).

Which stock are which again between the northern and Jubilee lines? If I remember correctly the northern line had the pushbutton feature, but I don't think they were ever used.

SDO is where you have 1 or 2 doors shut in a carriage and 2 open which is controlled by the driver. As for West Ham, its not a rare destination I am afraid to say. There is lots of scheduled workings to West Ham |

Bond Street (Jubilee Line) due to reopen in "Early December", has reopened today, much to my surprise! Seems it wasn't just me as the platforms were eerily quiet, as if still closed.
It explains why that section of that Jubilee was shut over the weekend + the temporary stickers covering Bond Street on the maps inside trains had slowly been removed over the past week.

The District Line was suspended between Hornchurch and Upminster for a while on Sunday- is there a cross over that can be used?

Was on a northbound "all stations Metropolitan Line train to Harrow-on-the-Hill" which then curtailed/changed into a "Metropolitan Line train to Wembley Park". I've never seen either stations as a destinations, but Wembley Park is probably very common. Not sure about HOTH though.

Between 09:20-11:20, Four peak time stablers finish at Wembley and 9 finish at Harrow reversing in the siding and running fast line back to Wembley Park and Neasden Depot |

Currently on the fake S8 stock on the Metropolitan Line, 21319/20. It's actually an S7 stock train but has 'an extra car 25382 (de-icing car) to allow for temporary use on the Metropolitan Line'. Strange.
