It's something like this:

The running lines for the Picadilly and Victoria (the latter using the
platforms formerly of the GN line into Moorgate) was 'swapped', I believe
during the 1960s, to allow cross-platform interchange between the two
northbound and southbound lines respectively - e.g. the Picc. is only
using
one of it's original tunnels, and one of the Vic/GM ones, and vice versa.

This means that there are little bits of runinng tunnel abandoned (or
saved
for stock transfer/emergency purposes) where the lines have been diverted
to
different platforms.
