The Metropolitan District Railway opened the line from Hounslow High Street to the junction with the MDR near Ealing on 1st May 1883. Boston Manor station opened on the same day. The station was originally named Boston Road. The signs on the platforms gave the name as Boston Manor for Hanwell. Between 1932 and 1934 the station was rebuilt to replace the 1883 station building. Up until then only District Line trains ran over the line but in 1933 Piccadilly Line trains started to run over the branch as far as Northfields when the depot at Northfields opened. The full service of Piccadilly Line trains running from Hounslow West through Boston Manor started on 13th March 1933. District Line trains through Boston Manor ceased in October 1964 and the service is now entirely provided by the Piccadilly Line. This view from the Heathrow -bound platform looks across to where a Piccadilly line train on the London bound platform is just leaving. The station is Grade II Listed. To the right of the station buildings here, but out of sight, are running tracks into Northfields Depot.

With Boundary House prominent in the centre.

Opened in 1883 as "Boston Road" by the Metropolitan District Railway on the line from Central London to Hounslow (and since 1977 to Heathrow), this station was renamed in 1911. It was rebuilt in its current form in 1934. It was served jointly by Piccadilly and District line trains from 1933, District line trains being withdrawn in 1964. View north east towards Northfields and central London. Like 55% of the London Underground network, this part is actually overground.
