Debden Station, London

Debden Station (GPS: 51.6455, 0.08381) is a station of the London Underground in Epping Forest, in the county of Essex in East England. It is served by the Central Line between Loughton Tube Station (heading towards Ealing Broadway Tube Station or West Ruislip Tube Station) and Theydon Bois Tube Station, heading towards Epping. The station is in Travelcard Zone 6. It is located off Chigwell Lane in Debden.

The Debden train station was originally called Chigwell Road station when it opened in 1865 for the Eastern Counties Railway. A few months later, it was renamed the Chigwell Lane station. The station was forced to closed during the First World War, between 1916 and 1919.

In 1938, plans were made to introduce the Central Line to the station. However it was delayed by the outbreak of the Second World War, and the electrified trains of the Central Line only began serving the station in 1949, during which the station was also renamed Debden. The present station building dates to 1974, when the station was reconstructed.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
