Barons Court: LU S7 stock, District Line to Ealing Broadway, departing from Barons Court, an interchange with the Piccadilly Line that serves the inner sides of the two island platforms, at 14.59 on Saturday, 6th July 2024. While the famous roundel nameboards do exist here, this sign, reminiscent of the old British Rail signs on the former Eastern Region, is unusual and unique for a London Underground station. Also, there is no apostrophe in Barons, unlike at nearby Earl's Court station.

Sowerby Bridge: When the L&YR moved Sowerby Bridge station eastwards in 1976 it was intended to be an important junction with the projected line to Littleborough and a large building was built in the 'V' of that junction. Prior to 1980, this view from the station approach would have been of an imposing building, at right angles to the surviving line and platforms. In the event the proposed line petered out near Rishworth and the branch railmotor service did not even warrant full platforms being constructed. The former office buildings on the left, now refreshment rooms, are a fortunate survivor.
