Default Metropolitan Extending East.

A colleague informed me today that once all the Sx stock has been
delivered there is a proposal to extend Metropolitan trains into the
East End.

Basically, a straight swap whereby H&C line trains would terminate at
Aldgate and (Uxbridge only) Metropolitan trains would continue to
Barking.

Anyone care to comment on the likelihood or as to why?

Also, he reckoned LT are toying with the idea of terminating some
Circle line trains short at Kensington Olympia.


Now that the Circle goes to Hammersmith, why even have the H&C? TfL
can just extent the Uxbridge trains to Barking. Edgware Rd to Baker
St will be Circle only. That will simplify operations.
