This section of line opened with the extension from Paddington to Kilburn Park on 31st January 1915, extended one stop to Queens Park and a connection with the LNWR on 11th February 1915. Trains passed Maida Vale until this opened on 6th June 1915 and made history by being the first Underground station to be staffed entirely by women. It was designed by Stanley Heaps (1880-1962) who took his inspiration from his predecessor, Leslie W. Green, who had died in 1908 aged only 34.
