In recent thread, there is a reference to the 1941 tube map at
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/clive.billson/tubemaps/1941.html to a
connection from Earl's Court to Latimer Road via Addison Road and
Uxbridge Road.

I can find no relevant words in Clive Feather's wonderful work at
www.davros.org/rail/culg/.


It's in the Hammersmith & City Line file, plus there's some pre-1906
stuff in the Circle Line file (look for "Middle Circle").


Thanks for that. I think I was looking for (and failed to find) "Addison
Road" which is now known as Kensington Olympia.
As one heads west towards Hammersmith from Latimer Road, what I take to
be the stump of the connection to Uxbridge Road, Addison Road, and Earls
Court can be seen on the left just outside Latimer Road.
