It probably won't appear in journey planner. They run at 14 & 44 from Earls Court and at 28 & 58 from Olympia.

JP has been playing up for a little while I expect the met line will reappear in JP after Friday.

it's usually for the Tuesday to Friday that the GBBF is on for every year, as a large number of people are expected at Olympia during this time.

Just as another noticing relating to Olympia, the "training pathway" running an S7 train from Olympia to Plaistow in the current working timetable seems to be being used a lot more - I would expect in preparation for the D Stock withdrawal - so there may be even more Olympia trains to use over the next couple of months. Again obviously this depends on when people need to be trained, but in the past couple of weeks I have seen one running in the late afternoon, and an S7 being turned from the Wimbleware at HSK, to Olympia, to Plaistow, in the morning peak (as a result of service disruption on Wimbleware).
