The three Yerkes tubes in the context of today’s Underground diagram. Names are those at the time of opening; where different, names of stations on other earlier or later lines are also included. Platform walls were to receive decorative tiling at those shown in bold type. Golders Green, Barons Court and Hammersmith were in the open-air and so had no tunnel walls to tile, though Golders Green had its staircases tiled. At Finsbury Park station, platforms were leased to the Great Northern Piccadilly & Brompton Railway (now the Piccadilly Line) by the Great Northern Railway (now part of First Capital Connect), which oversaw their construction. In keeping with other earlier tube railways, these were tiled largely in plain white. See Statisitics >> The Yerkes Network in Context click map for enlargement   Go to next section >>
