The entrance to Greenford Tube Station is on Oldfield Lane. Heading north, it is on the left. The railway tracks is elevated and cross above Oldfield Lane. This is one of the few stations of the London Underground where the train is in fact "over ground". Connecting the platform to the station is the only wooden-threaded escalator still in use on the London Underground.

Although there has been a Greenford Station since 1904, the present station dates to 1940, when the Central Line was extended here. Due to the Second World War, the opening of the station was delayed until 1947. The original Greenford Station was closed in 1963.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
