Hampstead Tube Station
Hampstead is a London Underground station in Hampstead, North London. It is on the Edgware branch of the Northern line, between Golders Green and Belsize Park stations. The branch's northernmost subterranean station, it is on the boundary between Travelcard Zone 2 and Zone 3. Designed by architect Leslie Green, it was opened on 22 June 1907 by the Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway. As it is at the junction of Heath Street and Hampstead High Street, the name Heath Street was proposed before opening, and the original tiled signs on the platform walls still read Heath Street. Because Hampstead is on a steep hill, the station's platforms are the deepest on the London Underground network, at below ground level; and it has the deepest lift shaft on the Underground, at . Its high-speed lifts, originally manufactured by Otis, were modernised by the Wadsworth Lift Company, and again in 2014 by Accord. To the north, between Hampstead and Golders Green stations, is the unco ...

Hampstead Railway Station (Metropolitan & St John's Wood Railway)
Hampstead was an authorised but unbuilt railway station in Hampstead, north London planned by the Metropolitan and St John's Wood Railway (M&StJWR). Plan The M&StJWR had received authorisation in July 1864 to construct a railway from the Metropolitan Railway's (MR's) station at Baker Street to a station near the London and North Western Railway's station at Finchley Road. The line was to be partly funded and operated by the MR. Before construction had begun, an extension was authorised across mostly open countryside to the village of Hampstead. The station was to be located at the junction of Willow Road, Flask Walk and Weatherall Place (now the south end of Well Walk). The extension was authorised in May 1865. The route between Swiss Cottage and Hampstead included an incline of 1 in 27 (3.7%) for which five special engines were constructed by the MR to deal with the steep grade. The M&StJWR struggled financially and the plans for the line to Finchley Road were reduced in s ...

West Hampstead Railway Station
West Hampstead railway station is a London Overground station on the North London Line between and in the London Borough of Camden and is in Travelcard Zone 2. The station and all trains are operated by London Overground. History The station opened on 1 March 1888 and was called West End Lane until 1975, when it became West Hampstead (making it one of three stations of essentially the same name along West End Lane). The train service was provided by the North London Railway until 1909, when management of the NLR was taken over by the London and North Western Railway. Complete amalgamation with the LNWR followed in 1922, and the LNWR then amalgamated with other railways to form the LMS from January 1923. The LMS became the London Midland Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, and the shortened brand name British Rail was used from 1965. The station and the rest of the North London Line was included in the reorganised BR business Network SouthEast in 1986. Fol ...

The line runs below street level with access via staircases to each platform. Lifts providing access to both platforms were added in 2014. During the same refurbishment works new ticket barriers were added. Artwork In 2011, ''Evenings' Hill ...
