Opened in 1904 by the Metropolitan Railway as the terminus of the line from Harrow, this station closed in 1938 when it was replaced by the current Underground station, which is a terminus for the Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines. View north east towards the former forecourt - the building was situated between the trolley park and the main building, with the running lines immediately behind it. The buffer stops would have been extreme left on this image. Like 55% of the Underground network, this part is actually overground.
