[edit] History
The first station opened in 1875 and closed in 1902 [5] and another was built by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. It was severely damaged in World War II and by two later major fires. From 24 September 1982 to 4 June 1984 it was the northern terminus of the Bakerloo line.
The line serving the station was opened by the London and North Western Railway as part of their "New Line" project on 15 June 1912 and was first used by Bakerloo line trains on 16 April 1917. One of the generating stations supplying this network was on the site of the current London Underground depot north west of the station. The carriage shed, now without direct connection to the DC line, between Stonebridge Park station and Stonebridge Park LU depot was originally built to house LNWR stock using the DC line.
[edit] Bus connections
This station is served by four London Bus routes, 112, 440 and PR2 and school bus 611. which stop opposite the station entrance. Other routes 18 and N18 run nearby on Harrow Road.
