Actually this is an R stock train - identifiable by the style of the fluorescent lighting. Most R stock trains were formed of converted pre-war Q38 trailers which were built with possible conversion in mind. However some were built as new.
The R stock primarily worked on the District Line.
The A stock only worked on the Metropolitan Line and were actually banned from some other subsurface routes because they were too wide. These trains looked very different and were built in two batches in the early 1960's — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spsmiler (talk • contribs) 23:11, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
