Yeah 5060+5090 were running on 413 from Amersham-Aldgate when it was taken out of service at Harrow-on-the-Hill. It was replaced by an S Stock, although 5060 was later reformed with 5022 at Neasden and returned to service in the evening peak running train 466, a fast Amersham service...

5074 went about two weeks ago to Northwood for disposal alone, although this was due to it having a fault, normally two units would go together as an 8 car as you rightly said
The only surviving units are now
3003+3162
3005+3149
3011+3184
3034+3185
3140+3041
3158+3076
3159+3079
3160+3061
3175+3078
The units used on Sundays tour (3133+3071) went to Acton Work to be taken for scrap on Tuesday
do you remember what these people looked like ?
i and a load of others (all young teens) go tube bashing most weekends mainly on 1967 stock and A stock :P
it could have been me lol
