West Hampstead Thameslink

The Midland main line 3 miles out of St Pancras in June 1969. A 'Peak' is about to take a semi-fast for Nottingham under the bridge carrying West End Lane. The station on the other side of the bridge was named 'West Hampstead Midland' at that time, one of the six names it carried following its opening in 1871. In 1988 it was renamed 'West Hampstead Thameslink'. Within 200 yards of here, on the same street, are two other stations, one serving the Jubilee Line - called West Hampstead, the other serving the North London Line, this one called.... West Hampstead.
