History


The station was first opened by the London and North Western Railway (LNWR) on 2 June 1879, on the main line from London to Birmingham.[9]

Services on the Bakerloo line were extended from Kilburn Park to Queen's Park on 11 February 1915.[10] On 10 May 1915, Bakerloo services began to operate north of Queen's Park as far as Willesden Junction over the recently built Watford DC line tracks shared with the LNWR.[10]

London Midland previously made three operational calls daily, which were not found in public timetables. As of the December 2013 timetable these stops no longer exist, with no main line services calling at the station.[11]


Station layout


All platforms at Queen's Park station are on the surface, the station being covered by a glazed roof. The slow main line platforms (platforms 5 and 6) are reserved for use during engineering work or partial line closures. The Bakerloo line tunnel portals are about 300 metres (980 ft) to the east of the station. The two inner station tracks, platforms 3 (westbound) and 2 (eastbound), split into four tracks in a carriage shed to the west of the station. Bakerloo line services starting or ending at Queen's Park normally do so in the two centre tracks of the four-track carriage shed. Bakerloo line trains joining or leaving the London Overground tracks, also known as the Watford DC line tracks, do so by passing through the carriage shed on one of the two outer tracks, which merge into the Watford DC Line, the latter of which becomes the station's outer tracks. Around a third of Bakerloo line trains terminate at Queen's Park with others continuing onward to Harrow & Wealdstone.

All platforms are accessed by stairs and although there is local pressure for step-free access there are no firm plans for lifts or escalators to be installed. The stairs are all behind the ticket barriers.

Future improvements


Great North Western Railway was given permission to run six trains per day from London to Blackpool North stopping at Queen's Park from 2018, but these plans have yet to come to fruition.[12]

Queen's Park may be the service's terminus, as stopping patterns including permission to run the service beyond Queen's Park to London Euston are dependent upon future infrastructural work to the West Coast Main Line.[12]
