There are two station entrances either side of the Thames, along with a connection to the London Underground District and Circle lines . The main line station was opened by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway with the name St. Paul's in 1886, as a replacement for the earlier Blackfriars Bridge station (now the present station's southern entrance) and the earlier Blackfriars railway bridge. This increased capacity of rail traffic through the Snow Hill Tunnel to the rest of the rail network. The Underground station opened in 1870 with the arrival of the Metropolitan District Railway . The station was renamed Blackfriars in 1937 to avoid confusion with St Paul's tube station . It was rebuilt in the 1970s, which included the addition of office space above the station and the closure of the original railway bridge, which was demolished in 1985. In 2009, the station underwent major refurbishments to improve capacity, which included the extension of the platforms across the railway bridge and a new station entrance on the South Bank. The underground station was rebuilt at the same time, and work was completed in 2012.

- Abandoned | London-UndergrounD
Background photo was taken at The transport museum in Acton There are many stations on the network that have either been in use, and are no longer at all, some have been demolished and rebuilt and some have been repurposed and some have just been left abandoned. There are also some stations that are still in use which have been redeveloped over the years, and now have disused platforms and tunnels. Some stations have been relocated to a slightly different location/position, to allow for more passenger capacity and for roads to be built. Quite often if you know what you are looking for, you can see evidence of where tracks and platforms have been previously. . There is a list full list of abandoned/disused stations and platforms can be found here . Some of the abandoned stations that have buildings left are also now listed buildings.

Background photo was taken at Gants Hill This website is neither endorsed or supported by TfL and if you are looking for official information, please click here Welcome to my web page. My name is Paul and I have an interest in all things related to the London Underground. One day I was looking for something online related to an abandoned tube station and after finding the information that I was looking for, this led me to another website and then another and then I thought that there must be a single website with lots of links to other websites. It turns out that I could not find one, but did find many other sites! So I decided to create this one, with as much information as possible, for other people to be able to look at. I am neither a graphic designer, or a web designer, just someone who thought they would "have a go" at creating a website, so I apologise if it may be a bit "rough around the edges". I hope that you are able to find something here that interests you and if you have any suggestions for things to add please let me know using the Contact us button. This project has taken a lot longer than I thought it would and I have learned so much from doing this. Where possible, I have added links to other websites (shown by text underlined like this) that I have found whilst creating this site that may be of interest to you. The main wording for each station listed is taken from the Wikipedia for that station and if you click on the at the top, this will take you to the full Wikipedia page for each station. If you are looking for something specific within a selected page, the ctrl+F buttons do allow a more refined search, but this is of a single page and not the site. I wanted the search site option to be more refined than what it is and if you know a way of doing this within Wix webpage editor, please use the contact us option to do so. There is a brief history of the London Underground here and an overview here , with a more comprehensive one here , but in short, it started as a group of different companies, who all wanted to compete with each other and eventually got amalgamated into one. There have been a lot of trials and difficulties along the way, which can be read about in various books, some of which have been referred to here. There are lots of key people who have shaped the network into what it is today, a list can be found here. There is far more information about the London Underground than what can be crammed into one website, so this is where other links have been added where appropriate All photos (unless specified) are my own. If I have used your photo, please let me know. I have sourced my information from as many different places as I can. I have found a lot of information from Wikipedia (which I know does have some inaccuracies) and some information I have found by looking at the Tfl maps and accessibility guides , The National Rail Stations site, Google maps, so I can see what is outside the stations and aerial views. I have also found the cartomap site and the IanVisits station diagrams site very helpful.

Background photo was taken at Baker Street Hidden London Discovering the forgotten Underground Published by Yale Press 2019 ISBN 978-0-300-245790 This is an intriguing history of disused and repurposed London Underground spaces. Behind locked doors and lost entrances lies a secret world of redundant stations and passageways, empty elevator shafts and cavernous ventilation ducts, some of which housed air raid shelters, secret wartime offices, and Winston Churchills bunker. Lavishly illustrated with previously unseen archives, architectural drawings and photographs, this book is an authoritative account of London's vast and vital transport network. Underground: How the Tube Shaped London Published by the Penguin Group ISBN 978-1-846-14462-2 In 2013 London Underground, the world's first underground railway, marks its 150th anniversary. This new, lavishly illustrated history is the official anniversary publication of the London Underground, drawing on previously unseen sources and images to celebrate the crucial role of the tube in the creation and everyday life of modern London. London Underground Owners' Workshop Manual Published by Haynes ISBN 978-0-85733-369-8 The London Underground, or Tube, is an icon: it is the world's oldest underground rail network and remains one of its largest and busiest. The Haynes London Underground Manual provides a detailed insight into its design, construction, operation and maintenance, featuring fascinating photographs and drawings from the archives along with essential technical details and an engaging narrative. Lively presentation and an abundance of colour imagery make this book an essential read for all enthusiasts of the Underground, railways and, indeed, historic London. Rails through the clay Published by Capital Transport Publishing; 2nd edition (10 May 1993) ISBN 978-1854141514 A truly all encompassing biography of the conception, birth, and evolution of London's tube system. The book immediately informs readers that it is not concerned with the earlier construction of the "cut and cover" lines, such as the Metropolitan and District lines, but concentrates on the deep level "tube" lines constructed by miners using Greathead Shields, and cast iron linings to burrow their way under London. The authors have mixed contemporary reports of finance, engineering, and technological difficulties in building the system, along with the great characters that drove the plan along. London readers may be greatly surprised to find that an American, Charles Yerkes, was largly instrumental in the systems conceptualisation and commercialisation (Quote from Amazon reviews by Mr. N. M. Craddy ) The Tube Mapper Project: Capturing Moments on the London Underground Published by The History Press (13 Nov. 2020) ISBN 978-0750994378 The Underground is the backbone of the city of London, a part of our identity. It's a network of shared experiences and visual memories, and most Londoners and visitors to the city will at some point have an interaction with the London Underground tube and train network. The Tube Mapper project deliberately captures moments of subconscious recognition and overlooked interests, showcasing images that can be seen near or at many of London's Underground, Overground and DLR stations Tube Station Trivia by Geoff Marshall Published by Capital History 2018 ISBN 978-1854144317 In 2002 Geoff Marshall first attempted the Tube Challenge.

The railway is below ground in the central section and on the loop east of Paddington . Unlike London's deep-level lines , the Circle line tunnels are just below the surface and are of similar size to those on British main lines. Printed in yellow on the Tube map , the 17-mile (27 km) line serves 36 stations (this includes the 2 Paddington stations!), including most of London's main line termini . Almost all of the route, and all the stations, are shared with one or more of the three other sub-surface lines, namely the District , Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines .

Background Image from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:GoviaThameslinkLogo.svg Image from: http://www.projectmapping.co.uk/Reviews/thameslink_train_rail_maps.html Wikipedia Thameslink is a 24-hour, 115-station (32 managed) main-line route in the British railway system , running from Bedford , Luton , St Albans City , Peterborough and Cambridge via central London to Sutton , Orpington , Sevenoaks , Rainham , Horsham and Brighton . The network opened as a through service in 1988, with severe overcrowding by 1998, carrying more than 28,000 passengers in the morning peak. All the services are currently operated by Govia Thameslink Railway . The Thameslink Programme is a major £5.5 billion scheme to increase capacity on the central London section by accommodating more frequent and longer trains. The upgrade was scheduled for completion in 2019. In 2016, new Class 700 trains started operating on the route and replaced the Class 319 , Class 377 and Class 387 trains which were withdrawn and transferred elsewhere. There is a lot of debate as to whether this line 'belongs" on the Tube Map , or not, as it is not really an Underground service, but does connect with the underground. Although Thameslink has been showing on London Connections maps over the years, it appeared on the Tube Map in December 2020, this was to assist with social distancing when Coronavirus struck the UK and it was needed to show people that there alternative connections available.

It is printed in black on the Tube map . The Northern line is unique on the Underground network in having two different routes through central London, two southern branches and two northern branches. Despite its name, it does not serve the northernmost stations on the Underground, though it does serve the southernmost station at Morden , the terminus of one of the two southern branches. The line's northern termini, all in the London Borough of Barnet , are at Edgware and High Barnet ; Mill Hill East is the terminus of a single-station branch line off the High Barnet branch. The two main northern branches run south to join at Camden Town where two routes, one via Charing Cross in the West End and the other via Bank in the City , continue to join at Kennington in Southwark . At Kennington, the line again divides into two branches, one to each of the southern termini at Morden , in the borough of Merton , and Battersea Power Station in Wandsworth. In 2021 the line was extended. This is known as the The Northern Line Extension (NLE). The Northern line is serviced by four depots . The main one is at Golders Green , adjacent to Golders Green tube station, while the second, at Morden , is south of Morden tube station and is the larger of the two. The other two are at Edgware and Highgate. The Highgate depot is on the former LNER branch to Alexandra Palace. There was originally a depot at Stockwell but it closed in 1915. There are sidings at High Barnet for stabling trains overnight.

The station, which takes its name from the nearby St Paul's Cathedral , is on the Central line , between Bank and Chancery Lane stations, and is in fare zone 1 . It should not be confused with City Thameslink railway station which opened in 1990 with the name St. Paul's Thameslink, but is some distance from the Underground station. That station was subsequently renamed City Thameslink to avoid confusion for the emergency services, but for some years afterwards many maps and guidebooks in circulation continued to carry the earlier name. The station was opened by the Central London Railway (CLR) on 30 July 1900 with the name Post Office, after the headquarters of the General Post Office on nearby St. Martin's Le Grand . The name Post Office was possibly chosen instead of the more obvious St. Paul's to differentiate it from a South Eastern Railway (SER) station which already held that name (but which today is called Blackfriars ). There was a deep level shelter planned for here during the war, but never came about. The platforms were built under the road, which was quite narrow at the time, which meant that the Westbound platform sits on top of the Eastbound platform, but is the opposite way around at Chancery Lane . The platforms are about 17.5 metres and 22.2 metres underground . Sandilands Sandilands None - this only serves a residential area.

The site was the location of an earlier railway station from 1847 to 1957, known initially as Stratford Bridge and later as Stratford Market - after the nearby wholesale fruit and vegetable market.. The first station on the site was opened as Stratford Bridge on 14 June 1847 in Stratford -at-Bow on the Eastern Counties and Thames Junction Railway (ECR) between Stratford and Canning Town stations. By the 1860s the railways in East Anglia were in financial trouble, and most were leased to the ECR; they wished to amalgamate formally, but could not obtain government agreement for this until 1862, when the Great Eastern Railway (GER) was formed by amalgamation. Thus Stratford Bridge became a GER station in 1862.

The original station building designed by Leslie Green was located on Brompton Road a short distance west of its junction with Knightsbridge and Sloane Street . A rear entrance was located on Basil Street . The location of the station in a busy and fashionable shopping district meant that patronage at the station was high from the beginning, particularly due to the presence locally of the Harrods and Harvey Nichols emporiums. This contrasted with the next station on the line westward — Brompton Road — where passenger numbers were so low that from soon after its opening many trains were timetabled not to stop there. The platforms are about 22 metres below ground It was planned that in 2022 the old lift shafts would be reinstated and a new exit created to become step free. More details can be found here .
