Rail Junction at Queen’s Park Station, London

Queens Park Train Station in London
The intricate trackwork and tunnel entrance at Queen’s Park Station in northwest London reveal the dual identity of this site as both a passenger stop and a key depot for the Bakerloo Line. Opened in 1915, Queen’s Park serves as the operational transition point where London Underground trains share Network Rail tracks toward Harrow & Wealdstone. The junction’s dense web of points, signals, and electrified rails embodies over a century of continuous modernization—bridging early 20th-century tube engineering with today’s integrated mainline-underground operations.
