They just show "CIRCLE LINE" normally. Are the blinds to be redone?

Yes, according to posts some months ago in District Dave's forum, at the
time of the early trials...

Changing at Edgware Road made to seem like a piece of cake in the
blurb.

Spotted a revised platform map at KXStP yesterday, approaching the
Westbound SSL platform from the Khyber Pass. Sports a sticker saying
words to the effect of, "This map shows the revised Circle Line service
from 13th December 2009."

Cheers,

Barry

The one at Euston looks really confusing, even though I already know
what the plan is!

Please excuse me if I've missed something, but what happens to the
Liverpool St-Barking bit of the Hammersmith route? Is that still
(going to be) running, in addition to Paddington-Hammersmith being
part of the "circle" (so two colours on the diagrams for the
Hammersmith branch)?

Thanks.

You've got it. The only change planned to the H&C AIUI is that eventually
the Whitechapel terminators will extend to West Ham where they are putting
in a new turnback, but that seems to be independent of the Circle changes.

Barry Salter has reported seeing some new line maps today, presumably he'll
be able to confirm that the stretch down to Hammersmith has both colours?

The map in the leaflet has both the Thames and the Hammersmith & City

Here's the map at KXSP:

(I don't think any new poster network maps or map leaflets are in
circulation yet)

AIUI the new timetable changes the 7 tph H&C and 7 tph Circle into 6
tph each, meaning 12 tph departures from Hammersmith.

I think I've lost track of that aspect. Weren't there at one time supposed
to be some slight changes to the Met and District to maintain numbers along
the north and south sides of the common routes as well?

Which reminds me of something that doesn't seem to have been discussed much.
Is part of the real rationale for this to persuade pax from the Kings Cross
area, heading for the south western extremities of the network, to stop
using Earls Court or Gloucester Rd when changing? Most publicity just
dwells on the better service to Hammersmith H&C, without trying to explain
how that helps pax overall, IYSWIM...

Why does the current timetable favour 7 tph on various sections? I
could see the point if there were 70 minutes in an hour.
