The London Underground B Stock was built for the Metropolitan District Railway in 1905. 420 vehicles were built, formed into sixty 7-car units.
140 cars were built in Britain by both Brush Traction and Metropolitan Cammell, with the remaining 280 built in France by Ateliers. 192 of the cars were driving motors, thirty-two were control trailers and the remaining 196 cars were trailers.
These units were wooden-bodied and were based on the prototype A Stock.
In the 1920s, several cars were rebuilt and reclassified as H Stock, the motor equipment being used in G Stock motor cars.
The final units were withdrawn by the 1940s. Afterwards, at least three cars were transferred into departmental service, being used as a weed killing train.
No vehicles have survived into preservation.
