I have the Met No.1 Section (M-F) and No.2 (M-F & SO) for 1975. Would anyone be kind enough to share pics of the SO/SuO for No.1 and SuO for No.2?
Kind Regards

Could you just clarify, are you talking about timetables here?

The best thing to do is to state the numbers of the WTTs concerned to avoid confusion.

I have No.1 Section 248 (Jan '75) Mondays to Fridays, and No.2 Section 250 (Jan '75) and 266 (Feb '77) I was wondering if anyone could help fill in the gaps. If I had the missing numbers I would have put them.

1975 was a year when normal permanent WTTs were gradually restored on all lines following a period of two to three years of temporary reduced service timetables caused by the staff shortages at the time.
On the Metropolitan, WTTs 235 (No.1 Section) and WTT 237 (No.2 Section) were introduced on 30/11/70. Both timetables contained services for Mon-Fri, Sat and Sun. It was these timetables that were suspended and replaced by temporary reduced timetables from June 1973 (reduced peak) and Oct 1974 (reduced all periods of the week) respectively. These were WTTs C235 and E235 on No.1 Section and C237 and E237 on No.2 Section.
Permanent timetables were restored as the staffing situation improved as follows:
No.1 Section WTT 248 (Mon-Fri - 01/04/75), WTT 244 (Sat - 25/01/75), WTT 245 (Sun - 17/08/75). WTT 248 was replaced by WTT 259 from 21/02/77.
No.2 Section WTT 250 (Mon-Fri - 01/04/75), WTT 251 (Sat - 31/05/75), WTT 247 (Sun - 20/07/75). WTT 250 was soon updated by WTT 253 (14/07/75) and its accompanying reduced peak timetable WTT 254. WTTs 256 (Mon-Fri) and 257 (Sun) were no uncoupling timetables available from Jan 1976. WTTs 261 (Mon-Sat), 262 (Sat) and 263 (Sun) were introduced week commencing 21/02/77. WTT 266 (Sun) was the no uncoupling timetable for WTT 263 available from 27/02/77.
During this period, East London Line timetables were 236, 239, A242, B242, 260 and City Widened Lines 238, 240, 241, 243, 252, 258, 264, 267.
I have no record of WTTs 246 or 255 ever being introduced.
Hope this is of some help.
