West Hampstead
66606 passing West Hampstead London Overground station towards Willesden Junction, on the afternoon of Friday, 14th January 2022. This line opened as the Hampstead Junction Railway in 1860 but this station did not open until 1888 as West End Lane. When part of the Broad Street to Richmond line, it was listed for closure by Beeching in 1963. Such was the outcry that the line was reprieved and in 1975 the station was renamed West Hampstead to bring it in line with the other two stations on the same thoroughfare. Rebuilding with a new entrance and the footbridge (with lifts), was completed in December 2019.
