List of former and unopened London Underground stations

 * Nominator(s): DavidCane (talk) 00:58, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

The history of the London Underground is littered with mistakes, modifications and unfulfilled plans. The number of stations formerly served by the system is large and many are well known to its users. Other stations are lost in the mists of time; long forgotten and ignored. Still more were planned but never built due to shortages of cash, government intervention or changes of plan. All former stations and those that received government approval for construction are listed. This list is a companion to List of London Underground stations.

 * Support—I made a few minor fixes, but can see no large problems. I assume you've done your job well and made the list comprehensive. Ucucha 16:01, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, thought I'd got all those. --DavidCane (talk) 21:08, 1 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Support. While the lead doesn't wow me, I'll offer my support nonetheless. Wizardman  Operation Big Bear 22:19, 17 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Support. The list is by all appearances a finished product, and "the subject is interesting" is not in the FL criteria. --erachima talk 10:22, 14 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment – Not much to complain about here, but I do believe the notes for Drayton Park and Essex Road should have periods at the end. Neither seems like a sentence fragment, which possibly wouldn't require a period.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 22:18, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Done.--DavidCane (talk) 23:41, 17 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Support Funnily enough, I was flicking through some of these stations earlier today (started reading Iridescent's latest masterpiece on the far reaches of the Metropolitan Line and before you know it, you've ended up finding out how many attempts it took to build a decent tube station near the Tower of London). I've made a few changes to sentence fragments etc, since my understanding is that sentence fragments shouldn't have a full stop after them even if you then insert a reference. Otherwise, a thorough piece of work (even if its appeal might apparently be limited to fellow ferroequinologists and Londonphiles, it deserves a wider audience).
