The Wimbleware/Circle combination gives a one-change route between
Putney and King's Cross, avoiding humping child's buggy or heavy
luggage up and down footbridge stairs any more than necessary
(can't be avoided at East Putney). It's pretty reliable for same
platform interchange. Can't do that under new arrangements, and
that was true before they started cutting Wimbledon trains back
from Edgware Road to High St to add extra changes too.
One-change route: Putney - Earls Court - lift - Piccadilly line

Kings Cross - [lift from next year / escalator + lift with no stairs
now]
What exactly is the interchange at Earl's Court? AIUI the lifts are
some way apart and either serve the District platforms (two lifts) or
the Piccadilly platforms. Sounds a very long way from a same platform
interchange to me.
