The 1967 tube stock was built by Metro-Cammell for the new Victoria line. All the trains were designed for automatic operation, although they could be driven manually in the depot or in an emergency. Withdrawn cars of Mk I 1972 Stock were later moved into the 1967 stock fleet in the 1990s, creating a fleet of forty-three 1967 stock trains. As they did not feature ATO, they were used only as non-driving cars, positioned in the middle of trains rather than at the ends. Each complete train consisted of two four-car units coupled together. The operator started it by simultaneously pressing two buttons in the cab to initiate the automatic process.
1967 tube stock cars included wrapped-round windows in the drivers cab and extended windows in the doors, so that standing passengers could see the station name. Loading times at stations were improved by providing a stand-back beside the doors, so that passengers standing near the doors did not block so much of the exit. Lighting was by fluorescent tube, with two lights in each car fed from the battery through an invertor, so that they remained lit should the motor alternator shut down.
Most cars were sent to C F Booth of Rotherham to be scrapped. However some units, particularly those which include 1972Mk1 cars, have been placed into storage at Eastleigh works, possibly as spare cars for the Bakerloo line. Two driving motor cars from the last run, 3079 and 3179, have been incorporated into the Asset Inspection Train. In addition to this, one four-car unit, 3160, remained in Northumberland Park depot. It was used to shunt newly delivered trains of 2009 Stock, however now that these have all been delivered it has been moved. Another unit, 3067, is used to train cleaners, and can move between various depots to facilitate this. It currently resides at London Road depot on the Bakerloo line.
