Default "The underground is closed"

The tannoy said at paddington this morning, anyway. Lots of people hanging
arround outside. I went outside to try and find Lancaster Gate (I was
assuming the entire underground hadn't been closed, jsut the PAD station)
and Praed Street was open. I assume H&C was also open, but they didn't
direct people to those places.

What happened?

I don't know but the tube had lots of problems today.

There was late running of engineering works somewhere on the Richmond/Ealing
Bdwy branch of the District line. For some reason this meant my tube from
Wimbledon to Earls Court was excessively overcrowded (the drivier even
announced "This train is as full as it's going to get") yet when we got to
Earls Court there was a nearly empty train to Barking (presumably from
Richmond/Ealing unless it came from Olympia). Why was the delay affecting
my branch more than the branch the delay was on?
