Wood End Road
The bridge ahead is over the Piccadilly line between Sudbury Hill and South Harrow.
The District Railway opened its new extension from north of Ealing Common to Park Royal & Twyford Abbey on 23rd June 1903. The line was opened fully to South Harrow on 28th June 1903. Few passengers were attracted at the start, the fact that trains terminated at South Harrow not helping. District line trains started to run beyond South Harrow on 1st March 1910 to Rayners Lane and Uxbridge, but they were only hourly for much of the day, increasing to a 20 minute service the following year.
This new extension was, together with the existing tracks between Ealing Common and Acton Town, the first section of the Underground's surface lines to be electrified and operate electric instead of steam trains. In the early 1930s, Government money was on offer to combat unemployment and using some of this the Piccadilly line was extended to run west of its original terminus at Hammersmith sharing the route with the District line to Ealing Common. This change took place from 4th July 1932. From Ealing Common to South Harrow, the District line was replaced by the Piccadilly line on the same date.
