No longer going round in circles

I heard about changes to the Circle Line on the London Underground that took effect from last Sunday, so I thought I'd look up on the Internet to find out more. It no longer goes round in a circle, but starts at Hammersmith following the Hammersmith & City Line route, then goes through Edgware Road and all the way round to Edgware Road again, where it terminates and goes back to Hammersmith.

The TfL website says, "Trains on the Circle line will become more reliable" and on some sections they will be more frequent. A pity, then, when I logged on this morning the website was reporting "severe delays" for the Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines.

Teething troubles trying to get all those trains into Edgware Road?

  1. Well what do you expect Eric on a tram line aye. They all think that they are running a rail system but a railway is an engine either (electric or diesel or Steam for those old enough to remember Steam) with a rake of coaches behind it. not a glorified tram unit.lol Ginge :)
