The first time I've seen this happen on a scheduled basis: when the
District and Piccadilly lines are closed between Acton and Earls
Court for scheduled engineering works over a number of weekends in
the next twelve months, travelcards valid to Central London to
Heathrow (Z1-6)will be accepted on both Heathrow Express and
Heathrow Connect services.

Full details in the TfL press release at:

And what does this mean?

"It will not be possible to run a bus service to and from Barons
Court because of local street traffic conditions".

Why can't they stop on West Cromwell Road to serve Baron's Court if
they really can't turn round at the station?


Talgarth Road, which is the part of the A4 at Barons Court, is IIRC a
No-stopping Clearway at all times.
