The London Underground 2024 Stock, officially known as 2024 Tube Stock, and known during development as the New Tube for London (NTfL), is a type of London Underground rolling stock built by Siemens Mobility at its facilities in Goole, United Kingdom and Vienna, Austria. It is part of the Siemens Inspiro family of metro and rapid-transport trains.
An initial batch of 94 nine-car trains has been ordered at a cost of £1.5 billion to replace the 1973 Stock trains on the Piccadilly line, with options for a total of 250 trains allowing replacement of all existing trains on the deep-level Bakerloo, Central and Waterloo & City lines. The first train was delivered for testing in London in October 2024. The trains are due to enter service between December 2026 and June 2027. The trains are planned to be operated by a train driver, with future potential for driverless operation.
