1996 Stock

The London Underground 1996 stock is a type of rolling stock used on the Jubilee line of the London Underground. The trains were built by GEC Alsthom-Metro Cammell (now Alstom) and entered service in 1997.undefined The trains are very similar to the 1995 Stock used on the Northern line.

The original 59 trains were initially operated in a 6-car formation, however, in 2005 an additional trailer car was added to lengthen each train to 7 cars. At the same time, four additional 7-car trains were ordered, bringing the total to 63 7-car trains.
