Indeed (pay attention at the back of the class!).


Here's the March press release about the extension of the Circle line:

Needless to say the early March discussion here in u.t.l happily quoted
just about every media story except the TfL one, which IIRC appeared after
all the fuss had died down ...


Perhaps the internal staff briefings happened before the public
announcement, and were then leaked to the press (FSVO 'leak' - it's
hardly some massive secret enterprise!). If the media had been
informed first then the staff would've got understandably annoyed.
