Default Picc derailment at Hammersmith

TfL website:
The Piccadilly Line has no service between Acton Town Station and Hyde

Park Corner Station in both directions.

Where do trains which terminate at Hyde Park Corner switch from Southbound
to Northbound tracks for their return journey?


According to Quail, there is a trailing crossover on the eastern side of
Hyde Park Corner station.
I'm guessing the crossovers between the fast and slow lines west of
Baron's court must be blocked by or too close to the derailed train as
the reason that some Picc trains are not using the slow (District) lines
to run some sort of service west of Hyde Park corner.

a) Down Street station is bricked up apart from a small section and
b) It's Down Street siding that can be seen to the west of the former
station.
