The Waterloo and City line was formerly run by Network Southeast rather than LU, as when built (late C.19th) it was essentially an extension of the Southern region's Waterloo services to serve the City. Since around the time of privatisation it has been run under TfL like any other line.

So that's why NSE ordered this batch of 1992ts

The 92 tube stock was ordered by NSE, and was painted in NSE livery until 2006, when they were brought above ground for the first time since their introduction, when they were painted into LU livery.

You're right. And NSE didn't order the trains from LUL. I think they ordered them from B.R.E.L,too.
