Westbourne Park is a London Underground station on the Circle and Hammersmith and City lines, between Ladbroke Grove and Royal Oak stations, and in Travelcard Zone 2 in The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea . Although the Metropolitan Railway had been extended to Notting Hill and Hammersmith on 1 June 1864 the first station by this name did not open until 1 February 1866.[3] This closed on 31 October 1871 to be replaced the following day by a new station constructed to the east of the original.[4] In February 1913 a bomb - possibly planted by the Suffragettes - was discovered at Westbourne Park station.

Adjoining the station is the First Centrewest bus garage.

Westbourne Park railway station[]

There were once British Rail platforms on the Great Western Main Line, but these closed in March 1992. Another station on the Hammersmith and City Line, Royal Oak, also had a GWR station, but this shut with the arrival of the underground in 1871. Today the first stop out of Paddington is at Acton Main Line.

In popular culture[]

The station was featured in the video of the Boris Gardiner song "I Want to Wake Up with You".[citation needed]
