A train for Stanmore arrives at Kingsbury on a grey day in March 1981. The line here was opened in 1932 as a branch of the Metropolitan Railway; Kingsbury is a typical London suburb of the inter-war era and railway construction went hand-in-hand with house building. The line was later to become a part of the Bakerloo Line and, in 1979, the Jubilee Line. The bridge in the distance carries Fryent Way.
