It would have been handy if, during the building of the Earl's Court

and bunged in a foot tunnel to Earl's Court. Still, i suppose West
Brompton - Earl's Court isn't too bad a walk; is it an out-of-station
interchange, as Marylebone/Baker Street?


Surely no need to be because West Brompton has both District line and main
line platforms, and is nearly as close to the Exhibition Centre as Earls
Court station?

Yeah, I don't quite understand Tom's comments either - there's no need
for an out-of-station interchange (in terms of ticketing).

West Brompton is right next to the Earls Court Exhibition Centre
anyway - you can walk along Eardley Crescent to get to the front
entrance. The only conceivable time one would get the the District
line to Earls Court if one was heading for the exhibition centre would
be if you'd just got off a southbound WLL train, where there's a cross-
platform change over to the northbound District, and there was a
District line train pulling in. And only then if it was pouring it
down.
