CIRCLE LINE: Good Friday 14, Saturday 15, Sunday 16 and Easter Monday
17 April, no service between Hammersmith and Edgware Road. HAMMERSMITH & CITY LINE: Good Friday 14, Saturday 15, Sunday 16 and Easter Monday 17 April, no service between Liverpool Street and Barking. Trains will operate between Hammersmith and Aldgate. Why is the Circle suspended, but not the Hammersmith & City? Don't they share tracks? -- jhk |

Will the Hammersmith & City line trains run with the new signalling then? They're exactly the same trains, so, no, not with passengers on board. My guess is that the signalling test is on a part of the Circle line that's closed this long Easter weekend. Yes - but as pointed out there is no part of the Circle Line that is closed that isn't shared with the Hammersmith and City line which is open. |

So does that mean the Circle Line is actually a circle line this weekend? |

Will the Hammersmith & City line trains run with the new signalling then? I've just received this week's email, and it sounds like they'll actually be doing the signal testing this weekend, not last: "Trains will not run between Edgware Road and Hammersmith. This is to allow us to test new signalling and replace track at Latimer Road. " |
