Don't they go all the way through to Uxbridge in the peaks?
No, only about half do. See my other post:
"I just looked at the Rayner's Lane departure board, and in the next 15
minutes there will be six through trains (five Met, one Picc) and two
terminators."
Are they running a weekday, or a Saturday, service?
I think they must have been running a Saturday service yesterday.
I just looked now, and there are ten trains due at Rayner's Lane in the
next 15 minutes, of which two are terminators. The others are all going to
Uxbridge (six Met, two Picc). The terminators are both followed by through
trains only a minute or two behind. I assume the Met through trains will be
waiting at the signal as the terminators go into the siding.
It also confirms that Met trains have replaced Picc trains on the Uxbridge
branch. It used to be closer to an equal service by both lines, now it's
75% Met beyond Ruislip.
Looking at Acton Town westbound, in the next 15 minutes there are six
Heathrow, one Northfields and three Rayner's Lane/Uxbridge trains.
