I received an automated email claiming that there would be many more Central line trains at peak times from Monday 16th September. This seemed unlikely but on checking the tfl website there did seem to be a lot more trains starting/finishing in White City. As I live in Shepherd's Bush and commute in every day this is very convenient for me (see districtdavesforum.co.uk/thread/19984/white-city-starting-eastbound-trains).
Unfortunately if by "more" LU actually meant "less" then they were right - otherwise they were committing a terminological inexactitude. Both yesterday and today the White City trains seem to be missing. Arriving this morning I found the display showing trains in 1, 5, 7 mins where the missing train at 3 was the one I wanted. I let a few trains go by, all packed, until the next cycle again showed a gap where the White City train should be.
So what's going on? Effectively the capacity has been reduced by about 20% the last couple of days
