Camden Town Station (GPS: 51.5394, -0.14266) is a station of the London Underground in Camden Town. It is served by the Northern Line, which comprises two branches - one going between Chalk Farm Tube Station and Mornington Crescent Tube Station, and the other between Kentish Town Tube Station and Euston Tube Station. The station is located to the west of the Camden Road Railway Station, which is served by the North London Line between Kentish Town West Railway Station and Caledonian Road & Barnsbury Railway Station.

The Camden Town Tube Station is one of the busiest stations of the London Underground, serving close to 20 million people in 2008. It gets very crowded due to high volume of tourists visiting Camden Market and Camden High Street. This is especially so during weekends. To prevent it getting overcrowded, entry is prohibited on Sunday afternoons.

As the situation is expected to worsen, plans are afoot to rebuild the station. However, there has been an outcry over the plans, as it requires the demolition of buildings that will affect the character of Camden Town. As of time of writing, the original remodelling plans have been rejected, but Transport for London has not yet proposed an alternative scheme.
