Wow - was the H&C (or Met, in those days) past Whitechapel really once
peak-hours only?

It still is, isn't it? I have a friend who lived in Stepney a few years
ago, and getting home from hers was a nightmare in the evenings for
exactly that reason.

No. It's Whitechapel-only on late evenings (last train ex-Barking is
the 2051) and Sundays, but runs to Barking for the rest of the day Mon-
Sat.

And did Met trains from the main line really only run through to Aldgate
in the peaks?

Er, they still do.

No. Met trains run to and from Aldgate all day. Last train ex-Aldgate
is the 0011 to Harrow.

Maybe you knew these things. Apologies, my sarcasm detector is broken this
morning.

I couldn't possibly comment on your tube-service-pattern detector ;-)
