Opened in 1903 by the Metropolitan District Railway as the terminus of the line from Central London via Turnham Green, this station was rebuilt in its current style in 1935. Services had been extended to Uxbridge in 1910. It is now on the Piccadilly line. View north west towards Rayners Lane and Uxbridge. Like 55% of the London Underground network, this part is actually overground. The original 1903 station building was still extant at the south end of the right-hand platform, behind the camera position, when this image was taken.
