Note that because of the new shape of the H&C (which, AIUI, entirely
replaces the current Circle service), at Paddington, no trains on the
Circle/District platform will go beyond Edgware Road, so should that
way lie your destination, your only option is to go to the H&C
platform, which is easier than the choice you face at present.

Also, the frequency of trains from the H&C platforms to Liverpool Street
will be increased (doubled?). If that didn't happen (i.e. the only
change was that trains from the Circle platforms terminated at Edgware
Road) then it wouldn't be much of an improvement

Well, quite!

- although, as you say, the choice would be easier. ;-)

Yes - take the flipping Bakerloo.

Random PS - why didn't the Bakerloo get called the Regent Line, since it
runs via Regent's Park and Regent Street? That would be a much better
name. 'Bakerloo' makes me cringe every time i hear it.

Having said that, I'd hazard a guess that the Hammersmith-Aldgate
service won't run off-peak (otherwise why send the Met to Barking?),

Hang on, what? What do you mean by the 'Hammersmith-Aldgate service'? Why
won't it run off-peak? How is this related to the Met?
