Er, yes. Under the teacup plan, the Circle and H&C will be merged into a

Not true. There will still be trains from Hammersmith that go to
Whitechapel. The trains from Hammersmith that go to Edgware Road via
Aldgate will be in *addition* to those existing trains, thus
increasing the frequency on the Hammersmith branch. I expect they'll
be branded "Circle line", whilst there's no reason to think the
"Hammersmith & City" branding will go away, either...


Indeed (pay attention at the back of the class!).

Here's the March press release about the extension of the Circle line:
