S Stock sub-surface trains, delivered by Bombardier Transportation in Derby to the London Underground, are in the process of replacing 177 trains on the Metropolitan, District, Hammersmith & City, and Circle lines. The order consists of a standardised fleet of 191 trains (1,395 cars). The stock has two types, S7 and S8, serving different lines, with differences in the arrangement of seating and number of cars. Both types have air-conditioning and low floors to ease accessibility for disabled people, and it is possible to change cars when the train is moving, unlike older subsurface trains.

  • S Stock sub-surface trains, delivered by Bombardier Transportation in Derby to the London Underground, are in the process of replacing 177 trains on the Metropolitan, District, Hammersmith & City, and Circle lines. The order consists of a standardised fleet of 191 trains (1,395 cars). The stock has two types, S7 and S8, serving different lines, with differences in the arrangement of seating and number of cars. Both types have air-conditioning and low floors to ease accessibility for disabled people, and it is possible to change cars when the train is moving, unlike older subsurface trains. The order is said to be the biggest single order of rolling stock in Britain. According to Transport for London, the cost will be £1.5 billion. Passenger service began on the Metropolitan line in July 2010, the Hammersmith & City line in July 2012, and the Circle and District lines in September 2013. The S8 Stock completely replaced the A Stock on the Metropolitan line in 2012, and the S7 Stock is expected to completely replace the C Stock on the Hammersmith & City line in 2014 and on the Circle line and the Edgware Road branch of the District line in 2015; and the D Stock on the rest of the District line in 2016.
