The branch between Wembley Park and Stanmore was opened by the Metropolitan Railway in 1932. It was much harder to construct than anticipated and amongst the heavy works was the diversion of the Wealdstone Brook. Canons Park station opened on the same day as the line, 10th December 1932. It became part of the Bakerloo Line in 1939 when that line was extended from Baker Street to Finchley Road, from there taking over the Metropolitan's old slow tracks to Wembley Park before the Bakerloo continued to Stanmore. In 1979 it became part of the Jubilee Line to Charing Cross, and in 1999 was linked to Stratford by the Jubilee Line Extension. A down Jubilee line train is about to set off for its final destination at Stanmore.
