West Hampstead Station (GPS: 51.54676, -0.19097) is a station of the London Underground in West Hampstead, in the London Borough of Camden. It is located on West End Lane.
West Hampstead Tube Station is served by the Jubilee Line between Kilburn Tube Station (heading towards Stanmore) and Finchley Road Tube Station (heading towards Stratford). It began operations in 1879 for the Metropolitan Railway, precursor of the Metropolitan Line. Services were transferred to the Bakerloo Line in 1939, and then to the Jubilee Line in 1979.
West Hampstead Tube Station is 100 meters from the West Hampstead Railway Station served by the National Rail and London Overground. It is also 200 meters from the West Hampstead Thameslink railway station. All three stations are near to each other but are not inter-connected. There was a proposal going back to 2004 to built subterranean walkways to link these three stations. It would require the demolition of some buildings, but will turn West End Lane into a tree-line boulevard. So far the proposal has remained on the drawing board.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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