Default Circle or not?

One poster at KXSP this morning says that the Circle Line is now running
during the peaks. Another says it's still suspended. Anyone know which?

I made a quick detour to the southbound Piccadilly Line platform on the
way to the Northern Line, just to watch a train depart. Good to see them
back.

TFL website reports Circle is running peak hours only, presumably as
of today.

BBC reports a shuttle service, but omits to mention what section of
track is covered.

Surely it can't take ALL the drivers to run a peak hours only service.

Presumably they are concentrating all the drivers onto the H&C and
District services, which are the more important and then only staffing
the circle when they can.

There is a circle service but only up until 1900, not sure what time it
starts at, the reason for the truncated service is the high level of
sickness at Edgware road.

Full Circle service was operating tonight as I left work at St James's
Park around 1800. That is to say, trains running all the way round the
Circle but at 20 minute intervals in each direction (Peak only).

Cheers,
