Notes :
(1) 1938 stock had already ceased working on the Northern Line, so a Bakerloo set was worked from Neasden to Golders Green via Aldgate, Acton Town and King’s Cross during the evening on 2 June.  It returned directly from Finsbury Park to Neasden via Acton Town and Rayners Lane.  The tour train worked as an ordinary passenger train on the Mill Hill East branch.
