Default The "Lasso Line"

So Paddington (Circle line station) to KX will *always* require a
change of train at Edgware Rd. Clockwise, anyway.


Yes, but anyone going from Paddington east should use the H&C platforms
which will have an increased frequency.


But isn't step-free. Not even close. My most frequent usage is
Heathrow-Paddington-KX, and clockwise is step free.

To preserve that really *does* need a x-platform interchange at Edgware
Rd.

In case you are wondering, when I'm going out from Heathrow I'd normally
have stayed overnight at an airport hotel, and so getting the Piccadilly
from KX is step free, and not too inconveniently slow.
