Elephant & Castle Station, London

Elephant & Castle Station (GPS: 51.49581, -0.10084) is a station of the London Underground in the London Borough of Southwark, on the boundary between Travelcard Zones 1 and 2. The station is served by two subway lines, namely the Bank Branch of the Northern Line between Borough Tube Station and Kennington Tube Station, and is also the southern terminus of the Bakerloo Line after the Lambeth North Tube Station.

The Elephant & Castle Tube Station began operations on 18 December 1890 with the Northern Line, then known as the City & South London Railway, and on 5 August 1906 as the southern terminus of the Bakerloo Line, then known as the Baker Street & Waterloo Railway. The station was rebuilt in the 1960's when the Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre and roundabout were constructed.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
