Central line check' design, as used on Central line 1992-tube stock

Moquette is the durable upholstery fabric used on public transport across the world. Known as Central line check, this design comprises a geometric grid pattern of contrasting squares, lines and triangles in red and grey on a navy background. The moquette was designed by Jonathan Sothcott specifically for use on the 1992 Central line Tube stock. The colours used complement those used throughout the carriage. It was also one of the first examples of the upholstery pattern picking up the colours of the line. This sample was manufactured by John Holdsworth & Co Limited.
