The London Underground M and N stock comprised trailers that were pulled by the Q38 stock driving cars.
[edit] London Underground M Stock
London Underground M Stock was a clerestory-roofed rail stock built for the Hammersmith and City Line in 1935 and subsequently absorbed into the London Underground Q Stock, being redesignated Q35 Stock. The M Stock was based on the 1927 K stock. Twenty-eight cars were built in 1935 by Birmingham Railway Carriage and Wagon Company: fourteen were driving motor cars and the rest were trailers. All the driving motor cars were converted to trailers between 1947 and 1955. The M Stock was the first surface stock to be delivered with air-operated doors.
