The District line is closed from HSK to Edgware Road this weekend (as
it was last weekend), along with the usual SSL closures from Baker St
to Liverpool Street. However, the Circle is still running to Baker
Street from HSK. Is this because they've decided they can't turn
around the Wimblewares at Edgware Road as well as the H&Cs? They seem
to have managed OK before.

I guessed it must have been the enhanced volume of H&C reversals. Have
they had the entire Hammersmith service reversing at Edgware Road
alongside the District services before?

They reduce the frequency from 8tph to 6tph (but they seem to be doing
that this weeked too, as well as during all the other closures when the
District was still running).
