TheHammersmith & City line is aLondon Underground line that runs betweenHammersmith in west London andBarking in east London. Coloured pink on theTube map, it serves 29 stations over 15.8 miles (25.5 km). BetweenFarringdon andAldgate East it skirts theCity of London, the capital's financial heart, hence the line's name. Its tunnels are just below the surface and are a similar size to those on British main lines. Most of the track and all stations are shared with theCircle,District orMetropolitan lines. Over 141 million passenger journeys are made each year on the Hammersmith & City line.

In 1863, theMetropolitan Railway began the world's first underground railway service betweenPaddington and Farringdon with wooden carriages hauled by steam locomotives. The following year, a railway west from Paddington to Hammersmith was opened and this soon became operated and owned jointly by the Metropolitan andGreat Western Railway companies. The line was then extended to the east, in stages, reaching theEast London Railway in 1884. The line was electrified in 1906, and, in 1936, after the Metropolitan Railway had been absorbed by theLondon Passenger Transport Board, some Hammersmith & City line trains were extended over the formerDistrict Railway line to Barking. The Hammersmith & City route was shown on the Tube map as part of the Metropolitan line until 30 July 1990, when it was redesignated as a separate line.[3]

Starting in 2015, the signalling system was upgraded as part of a programme to increase peak-hour capacity on the line. The six-carC Stock trains were replaced from 2012 to 2014 by new seven-carS Stock trains.

The line runs parallel to theGreat Western Main Line between Paddington andWestbourne Park, and parallel to theLondon, Tilbury and Southend line betweenBromley-by-Bow and Barking.

The first line built by the Metropolitan Railway (Met) was from Paddington to nearSmithfield, near London's financial heart inthe City; with gas-lit wooden carriages hauled by steam locomotives. Authorised by theHammersmith and City Railway Act 1861 (24 & 25 Vict. c. clxiv), and opened on 10 January 1863, it was the world's first underground railway. The line was built mostly under theNew Road using the "cut-and-cover" method between Paddington and King's Cross and then in tunnel and cuttings besideFarringdon Road.[4][5] Supported by the Met and theGreat Western Railway (GWR), the Hammersmith & City Railway (H&CR) was built from the GWR's main line a mile west of Paddington station to the developing suburbs ofShepherd's Bush andHammersmith.[6][7] Built on viaduct largely across open fields,[8] the line opened on 13 June 1864 with a GWR service from Farringdon[9] toHammersmith,[10] services to Addison Road (nowKensington (Olympia)) on theWest London Railway via a link at Latimer Road starting a few weeks later.[9] From 1865, the Met ran trains to Hammersmith and the GWR trains to Addison Road.[b] In 1867, the line became jointly owned by the two companies. In 1871, two additional tracks parallel to the GWR between Westbourne Park and Paddington were brought into use for the H&CR, and in 1878 the flat crossing at Westbourne Park was replaced by adive-under.[8] A year earlier some services had been extended viaLondon & South Western Railway'sHammersmith (Grove Road) railway station and their line to Richmond.[12][10]

The railway was extended east of Farringdon and a terminus opened atAldgate on 18 November 1876.[13] The Met wished to access theSouth Eastern Railway via theEast London Railway (ELR) and jointly with theDistrict Railway built lines from theirMansion House station to the Met's Aldgate station and east from Aldgate to reach the ELR atWhitechapel. In October 1884, the Met extended some Hammersmith services over the ELR to New Cross.[14][10]

In 1902, theWhitechapel & Bow Railway was opened, linking the District Railway at Whitechapel to theLondon, Tilbury and Southend Railway (LT&SR) at an above-ground junction atBow, to the west ofBromley-by-Bow station, and some District services were extended from Whitechapel toEast Ham.[15] When the line was electrified in 1906 services to Richmond were withdrawn and the western termini became Hammersmith and Kensington (Addison Road), and to the east services were diverted from the ELR to Whitechapel,[16] until the ELR was electrified in 1914 and services ran from Hammersmith to New Cross (SER) and New Cross (LB&SCR).[17] The 6-car electric multiple units were jointly owned by the Met and GWR until 1923 when the GWR sold theirs to the Met.[18]

London Transport

[edit]
Main article:Metropolitan line (1933–88)

On 1 July 1933, the Metropolitan Railway was amalgamated with other Underground railways, tramway companies and bus operators to form theLondon Passenger Transport Board. To relieve congestion on theDistrict line east ofWhitechapel from 1936 some Hammersmith & City line trains were diverted from the East London line to Barking.[10] Through trains to New Cross and New Cross Gate were withdrawn in November 1939,[10] the Hammersmith & City line trains terminating at Whitechapel while the longer 8-carUxbridge line trains ran to Barking. However, this caused operational problems and from 1941 Barking was again served by trains from Hammersmith.[19]

From 1937, new steelO stock trains, with doors remotely operated by the guard, replaced the wooden-bodied trains dating from 1906. It had been intended to operate the new trains with four or six cars,[19] but after initial problems with the traction current only six-car formations were used.[20] Services to Kensington (Olympia) via the curve at Latimer Road were suspended for the duration of World War II after bomb damage to the West London line in 1940.[21] When the similar trains running on the Circle line were lengthened to six cars in 1959 and 1960, the stock of the two lines was integrated with maintenance at Hammersmith depot.[22] AluminiumC Stock trains, with public address systems and originally unpainted, replaced these trains from 1970.[23]One person operation was proposed in 1972, but due to conflict with the trade unions was not introduced until 1984.[24]

A separate identity

[edit]

The Hammersmith & City line was shown on thetube map as part of theMetropolitan line until 1990, when it became separated, and the Metropolitan line became the route from Aldgate to Baker Street and northwards through "Metro-land" to Uxbridge,Watford andAmersham.[10][25] In 2003, the infrastructure of the Hammersmith & City line was partly privatised in apublic–private partnership, managed by theMetronet consortium. Metronet went intoadministration in 2007 and the local government bodyTransport for London took over responsibilities.[26] The reconstruction of Whitechapel station as part of theCrossrail project required the reversing platforms to be taken out of use and since December 2009 all services have been extended to Plaistow or Barking.[27]

Beginning in 2012, following the complete replacement of the Metropolitan line's A Stock with S8 Stock, the C Stock trains of the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines were replaced by the S7 Stock. The Hammersmith & City line received the S7 Stock first, with the first train entering service on 6 July 2012, running a shuttle service between Hammersmith and Moorgate[28] before operating between Hammersmith and Barking on 9 December 2012.[29][30] By March 2014, all services were provided by S7 Stock trains.[31]

Route

[edit]
The Hammersmith & City line and theLondon boroughs served

The line is 15.8 miles (25.5 km) long with 29 stations, all of which are shared with other lines.[2]

Almost all of its track is shared with the other London Underground sub-surface lines: from Hammersmith to Baker Street with the Circle line; from Baker Street to Liverpool Street with the Circle and Metropolitan lines; and fromAldgate East station to Barking with the District line. A short section between Paddington and Edgware Road is also shared with the District line, while a short section between Liverpool Street and Aldgate East is not shared with any other line.[32]

The line is electrified with a four-rail DC system: a central conductor rail is energised at−210 V and a rail outside the running rails at+420 V, giving a potential difference of630 V.[33]

Much of the 2-mile-35-chain (3.9 km) double-track railway from theHammersmith terminus toWestbourne Park station is on a 20-foot (6.1 m) high brick viaduct.[7] After Westbourne Park the line passes beneath theGreat Western Main Line re-surfacing atRoyal Oak station and running alongside the main lines toPaddington station.[32] The line enters a cutting just west of Paddington, with a cut-and-cover tunnel at the far eastern end of the platforms. It meets the Circle and District lines from Bayswater at Praed Street Junction before passing through Edgware Road station in a cutting. AfterKing's Cross St Pancras the line is partly in cutting but mostly in theClerkenwell Tunnels, just after which it passes over the Ray Street Gridiron that carries the route over theCity Widened Lines used forThameslink services.[32][34][35] There are bay platforms atMoorgate. Just before Aldgate the line diverges from the Circle and Metropolitan lines, continuing eastwards to join the District line west of Aldgate East.[32] The line passes over theWindrush line (on theEast London line railway) at Whitechapel station continuing on the 2-mile (3.2 km) former Whitechapel & Bow Railway toBow Road where it surfaces, and then to Bromley-by-Bow, where it runs alongside the London, Tilbury and Southend line fromFenchurch Street. At the next station,West Ham, there is a transfer with theJubilee line, theDocklands Light Railway andLondon, Tilbury and Southend line. There is a bay platform at the next station,Plaistow, and the line terminates after two more stations atBarking.[32]

Services

[edit]

As of December 2012[update], off-peak there are six trains per hour, calling at all stations,[36] and requiring 15 trains for the peak-hour service.[2] Together with the Circle line, over 114 million passenger journeys are made each year.[37] The journey from Hammersmith to Barking takes one hour during off-peak times. The central section from Paddington to Aldgate East is inFare Zone 1; to the west to Hammersmith and east to Bromley-by-Bow is in Zones 2; East Ham is in both Zones 3 and 4, whilst Barking is in Zone 4 alone.[38]

Rolling stock

Services are provided byS7 Stock trains, part of Bombardier'sMovia family, with air-conditioning as the sub-surface tunnels (unlike those on the deep-level tube lines) are able to disperse the exhausted hot air.[39] These trains haveregenerative brakes, returning around 20 per cent of their energy to the network.[40] With a top speed of 62 mph (100 km/h),[39] a 7-car S Stock train has a capacity of 865 passengers, compared to 739 for the six-car C Stock train it replaced.[41][42] With a length of 384 feet (117 m), S Stock trains are 79 feet (24 m) longer than 305-foot (93 m) longC Stock trains and station platforms have been lengthened.[43] Traction voltage was increased in 2017, from the present nominal 630 V to 750 V to give better performance and allow the trains to return more energy to the network through their regenerative brakes.[42]

Depot

[edit]

The line's depot is at Hammersmith,[c] close to Hammersmith station, built by the Great Western Railway to be operated by the Metropolitan Railway when the joint railway was electrified in the early 20th century.[16] Sidings at Barking and near High Street Kensington (Triangle Sidings) stable trains overnight.[2] Sidings at Farringdon were used during the C stock era; due to the greater length of the new S stock trains, these are no longer in use.

Four Lines Modernisation

[edit]
See also:Four Lines Modernisation

It was planned that a new signalling system would be used first on the sub-surface lines from the end of 2016,[44] but signalling contractor Bombardier was released from its contract by agreement in December 2013 amid heavy criticism of the procurement process[45] and London Underground subsequently awarded the contract for the project toThales in August 2015.[46]

With the introduction of S7 Stock, the track, electrical supply, and signalling systems are being upgraded in a programme planned to increase peak-hour capacity on the line by 27 per cent by the end of 2023.[44][47][48] A single control room for the sub-surface railway opened at Hammersmith on 6 May 2018, andCommunications Based Control (CBTC) provided by Thales will progressively replace 'fixed block' signalling equipment dating back the 1940s.[44][49]

The rollout of CBTC has been split into sections, each known as a Signal Migration Area (SMA), and are located on the line as follows:[50]
