Not 100% sure if this should go here or in the 'General Questions and Comments' section, but I've settled on here.
My aim in this post is to provide a line-by-line (therefore stations served by more than one line appear more than once) list of all possible reversing locations and - as far as I am able - a brief description of the moves which are carried out there. Partly I hope this can benefit others but I'm also very keen to receive any correction, clarification, comments, additional moves/locations I've missed out, etc. On a number of points I'm not sure, these are indicated by italics and, generally, a question mark. This post will be pretty big, of course, but if anyone more knowledgeable comes across something I'm unsure about which they can correct/confirm or a question they can answer I'd be very grateful to hear.
On notation and the logic and structure: bold is used for termini. The orientations of the lines are as they are given in the working timetables (I selected east-west for the Jubilee) and all directions are described like this. So if I describe a crossover, say, as being 'south' of a station, I mean heading south - its true direction has not been taken into account. Oh, and the Circle is described as IR/OR (Inner Rail/Outer Rail) as is the Hainault loop of the Central line. In this case, I don't use compass points at all, but would describe, for example, the crossover at Royal Oak as being 'at the Westbourne Park end of the station.' I may have made some mistakes with the directions, it's easy to mix them up I find, so feel free to correct any you find. I'm afraid I can't guarantee that I've been entirely consistent with my layout and what I include/exclude and how I phrase things as I put this together over a number of days, but I hope it'll be of some interest.

Access to Acton Works depot (rarely used) from platform 1 and sidings to east of station via reception road adjacent to station. Access to Ealing Common Depot from platforms 3 & 4? Platforms 3 & 4 are definitely accessible from Ealing Common depot but I don't know if trains can reverse into Ealing Common Depot from one or both of these platforms or if Picc trains ever visit Ealing common depot. Connection with local lines to east of station.
Ealing Common? - Access to Ealing Common depot from both platforms? I know that 1973TS can display Ealing Common as a destination, I assume they can reverse via/stable in Ealing Common depot?

Northfields - West-east from platform 2 (WB fast) and east-west from platform 3 (EB fast)? via crossover to east of station. Access to Northfields depot from all 4 platforms. West-east and east-west via depot. Does 7 rd act as a reversing siding for west-east (and east-west?) reversal from the fast lines?
Boston Manor - WB trains can access Northfields depot via mainline shunt. This can, I believe, be part of an involved shunt move for west-east reversal via the depot and a mainline shunt on the EB?
Osterley? - EB trains may terminate here and run empty to Northfields depot? Trains may also enter service from Northfields depot here?
Hounslow Central - West-east via crossover to east of station.
Hatton Cross - West-east and east-west? via crossovers to east of station. In some respects, trains for Heathrow Terminals 4 & 1,2,3 can be considered to reverse here, via the Heathrow loop. Obviously this is done in service.
Heathrow Terminal 4 - single platform station on reversing loop. Trains generally arrive from Hatton Cross and run back to Hatton Cross via Heathrow Terminals 1,2,3 but may, I believe, arrive from Heathrow Terminals 1,2,3 and run to Hatton Cross? Trains do not actually reverse here, merely hold in platform.
Heathrow Terminals 1,2,3 - West-east and east-west? via scissors crossover to east of station. Trains from platform 1 (and 2?) may also head onto the Heathrow loop and back to Hatton Cross via Heathrow Terminal 4? Trains for Heathrow Terminals 4 & 1,2,3 do not actually terminate here at all. After a brief dwell at Heathrow Terminal 4 trains generally continue EB via Heathrow Terminals 1,2,3 and Hatton Cross.

My aim in this post is to provide a line-by-line (therefore stations served by more than one line appear more than once) list of all possible reversing locations and - as far as I am able - a brief description of the moves which are carried out there. Partly I hope this can benefit others but I'm also very keen to receive any correction, clarification, comments, additional moves/locations I've missed out, etc. On a number of points I'm not sure, these are indicated by italics and, generally, a question mark. This post will be pretty big, of course, but if anyone more knowledgeable comes across something I'm unsure about which they can correct/confirm or a question they can answer I'd be very grateful to hear.
On notation and the logic and structure: bold is used for termini. The orientations of the lines are as they are given in the working timetables (I selected east-west for the Jubilee) and all directions are described like this. So if I describe a crossover, say, as being 'south' of a station, I mean heading south - its true direction has not been taken into account. Oh, and the Circle is described as IR/OR (Inner Rail/Outer Rail) as is the Hainault loop of the Central line. In this case, I don't use compass points at all, but would describe, for example, the crossover at Royal Oak as being 'at the Westbourne Park end of the station.' I may have made some mistakes with the directions, it's easy to mix them up I find, so feel free to correct any you find. I'm afraid I can't guarantee that I've been entirely consistent with my layout and what I include/exclude and how I phrase things as I put this together over a number of days, but I hope it'll be of some interest.

Access to Acton Works depot (rarely used) from platform 1 and sidings to east of station via reception road adjacent to station. Access to Ealing Common Depot from platforms 3 & 4? Platforms 3 & 4 are definitely accessible from Ealing Common depot but I don't know if trains can reverse into Ealing Common Depot from one or both of these platforms or if Picc trains ever visit Ealing common depot. Connection with local lines to east of station.
Ealing Common? - Access to Ealing Common depot from both platforms? I know that 1973TS can display Ealing Common as a destination, I assume they can reverse via/stable in Ealing Common depot?

Northfields - West-east from platform 2 (WB fast) and east-west from platform 3 (EB fast)? via crossover to east of station. Access to Northfields depot from all 4 platforms. West-east and east-west via depot. Does 7 rd act as a reversing siding for west-east (and east-west?) reversal from the fast lines?
Boston Manor - WB trains can access Northfields depot via mainline shunt. This can, I believe, be part of an involved shunt move for west-east reversal via the depot and a mainline shunt on the EB?
Osterley? - EB trains may terminate here and run empty to Northfields depot? Trains may also enter service from Northfields depot here?
Hounslow Central - West-east via crossover to east of station.
Hatton Cross - West-east and east-west? via crossovers to east of station. In some respects, trains for Heathrow Terminals 4 & 1,2,3 can be considered to reverse here, via the Heathrow loop. Obviously this is done in service.
Heathrow Terminal 4 - single platform station on reversing loop. Trains generally arrive from Hatton Cross and run back to Hatton Cross via Heathrow Terminals 1,2,3 but may, I believe, arrive from Heathrow Terminals 1,2,3 and run to Hatton Cross? Trains do not actually reverse here, merely hold in platform.
Heathrow Terminals 1,2,3 - West-east and east-west? via scissors crossover to east of station. Trains from platform 1 (and 2?) may also head onto the Heathrow loop and back to Hatton Cross via Heathrow Terminal 4? Trains for Heathrow Terminals 4 & 1,2,3 do not actually terminate here at all.
