Q Stock at Wimbledon
The District operated a variety of cars dating from 1923 to
1938, collectively called Q Stock. As seen on this train approaching Wimbledon, the
individual cars in a train had mixed body profiles and door arrangements but each car used
the same equipment. Sliding doors were originally hand operated by passengers until
they were converted to remote controlled air operation in 1938. The last Q Stock
operated in passenger service in 1971.
