What runs now on the tail between Edgeware & Hammersmith ?Circle Line schedules now are inconsistent and delay prone. The amount of time it takes to complete a circle is seldom divisible into a integer number of minutes for train intervals. There may be a couple of minutes of slack around Tower Bridge, but they can't recover much time. Then they have to shuffle Metropolitan and District Line trains with them. The District Line itself has 5 end-point permutations with only one station in common, or at least that was the case when I was there last in 1993. I am surprised they just don't expound on Metro and Dist Line schedules and abolish the Circle Line designation per se. |
