Default Metropolian Line question

Stopping pattern for the fast Amershams was Finchley Road,
Harrow-on-the-Hill, Moor Park, then all stations - is it still? The
indicators at Finchley Road always used to have facilities to indicate a
train that didn't stop at Harrow-on-the-Hill, though I've never seen this

in
use - have any trains ever missed the Harrow stop in regular service?

That's still the stopping pattern, although some now stop at Wembley Park as
well. Passengers at Wembley Park are often not told of the stop and as it
is on the Westbound "fast" platform they stand frustrated on the Westbound
"slow" platform (sorry don't know the numbers!).

There used to be a Fast Chesham which didn't stop at Harrow-on-the-Hill,
going through platform 1 at Harrow-on-the-Hill around 18:00. That must have
been over 10 years ago though. There may have been others, but there
certainly aren't any now.
