All photographs of this railway in date order.
![A Piccadilly Line service for Heathrow Airport leaving Gloucester Road in 1980. [Ref query 6778]<br><br>[John Furnevel 10/09/1980]](/images/49000/49402.jpg "Gloucester Road")
![King's Cross St Pancras westbound Piccadilly line platform on 14 July 1994. The poster in Spanish reads 'There'll be someone at home waiting to hear your voice'. It goes on to compare the cost of a call to Spain with that of a hot chocolate and pastry, and reminds us 'It's good to talk'. You'll have to imagine a Spanish Bob Hoskins. <br>

![Although dot-matrix indicators were well established on the platforms at King's Cross St Pancras Underground station at the time, this relic of a pre-electronic age survived at the foot of the escalators in July 1994. Platform 1 shows WATFORD 1st, CIRCLE LINE via PADDINGTON 2nd and HAMMERSMITH 3rd, one train for each of the three lines using the platform. Platform 2 shows only an ALDGATE train.<br><br>[David Panton 14/07/1994]](/images/51000/51426.jpg "Kings Cross St Pancras")
![The former Piccadilly Line tube station in Down Street, Mayfair, seen here on 21 July 2005, some 73 years after closure. Opened in 1907 the station suffered due to the proximity of Hyde Park Corner and Green Park stations and closed in 1932. Down Street's claim to fame was in hosting several meetings of Churchill's war cabinet during WW2.<br><br>[John Furnevel 21/07/2005]](/images/17000/17872.jpg "Down Street")
