Default The new service pattern on the Circle and H&C lines

An improved service from the north side of the circle down to Barking
would have a great effect on the central, plenty of people (myself
included) could take either into the city, but opt for the central
(which involves changing) on the basis of reliability, frequency and
speed. With a decent frequency and spanking new ACed up S Stock I know
I'd prefer that to standing with my head at a 45 degree angle squashed
up against the doors in 40 degrees on the central.

T-cup seems to make a lot of sence, the paddington stations
improvements would also be well recieved, I do Paddington - Bow Road a
fair bit, and will normally take bakerloo, central and district rather
than gamble on the cooperation of the H&C. Thought the unified aldgate
interchange is interesting (I do this on foot a fair bit, one of the
great irritations of oyster is that it would not let me do this
without paying for the privalage of walking), If that could be done it
would be a very usefull addition for people living/working on the
district.
