As per usual the Central is shut west of Marble Arch this weekend. But to make it more interesting the Bakerloo Line is out in sympathy on Sunday.
So the replacement bus service starts/ finishes at Baker Street!
That seems a little bit of a strange choice, wouldn't somewhere like Hammersmith be a tad closer or heavens forbid, perhaps run from Marble Arch instead of Baker Street.

The Bakerloo is usually shut on a sunday especially in the case of this week's work [Queens Park-Harrow]
Also the West End branch of the Northern will be shut, 10TPH from High Barnet, and the same from Edgware will all go down the City branch. They should be ok for you shouldnt it CS? 20TPH, not bad, gives it a breathing space.

20TPH I'm happy with. It's when we get 10tph I start to moan  |

Work on the Jubbly, rare its less than 21tph. Frequently the magic figure of 24Tph is achieved.

Yes, but replacement bus parking and loading for passenger transfer is problematic at Marble Arch. Baker Street offers more options, it a well oiled machine there. |

The normal Central Line replacement bus from Willesden Junction is a real pain for me if I have to do the Edgware Road trip, as it's very difficult to make useful announcements that don't go on and on (change at Paddington, take the Bakerloo line to Willesden Junction, then get your bus, but only for stations west of North Acton, otherwise take a local bus from God knows where!)
Still, can always cop out and say "ask station staff for further information"!

Re 24tph on Jubilee it's quite easy to achieve,push everything out for the 18:00 snapshot,put away 3 or 4 trains between 18:30 & 19:30 then put them back out for the 21:00 snapshot.It's all smoke and mirrors.
