Kensal Rise

Kensal Rise station, London Overground, showing the building that replaced the original and which resembles more a public convenience than a station, looking east on 4th January 2020. This is on what was originally the Hampstead Junction Railway that celebrated its 160th birthday two days before this photo was taken although this station was not opened until 1873 as Kensal Green, replacing a station slightly to the west that had opened in 1861 as Kensal Green & Harlesden. The station was renamed Kensal Rise in 1890.
