do the Jubilee and Metropolitan Lines share tracks between
Baker Street and Finchley Road?

At Baker Street the Jubilee (was once part
of the Bakerloo) is in a tube tunnel, and I don't think the lines
merge until Finchley Rd. Even then, they stay as two pairs of
track, each dedicated to one of the lines.


But there are crossovers which allow trains some interchange between
the tracks of the two lines.


Weren't these removed sometime in the past few years?


Possibly. They still exist on the District/Piccadilly between Acton Town
and Hammersmith/Baron's Court.
