I don't quite get how the olympia service which only ran every 15 or 30
mins can have caused such congestion at earls court that they feel the
need to get rid of it. Or is that just an excuse? (I'm not axe grinding ,
it makes no difference to me, I never use it).


They want to use the units elsewhere.


If it's just down to utilising the D stock elsewhere, why has no-one
suggested using a couple of sets of redundant A stock to retain the shuttle
service? AIUI the only restrictions on A stock applied between Edgware Road
and High Street Ken, so it's (presumably) in gauge beyond HSK.
