Disused stations on London Underground (Tube)

London Underground History - Disused Stations on London's Underground

There are about 40 abandoned or relocated stations on the Underground network along its entire 255 miles (408Km) of trackway - some subsurface and some above ground. Some have vanished without trace whereas others are almost intact, grimey time capsules of the era when they were closed.

1929 London map:
Stations highlighted in red denote Underground stations that have closed since this map was published. Stations highlighted in green denote stations that have been renamed. The original map was monochrome with the exception of lakes and the river Thames being coloured light blue.
