Chalfont & Latimer Station – 26th August 2023
This Google Map shows Chalfont & Latimer station.
Note.
- There are two through platforms, which are electrified with the London Underground four-rail system.
- There is also a West-facing bay platform, which is electrified the same way.
- The bay platform used to host a shuttle to Chesham station.
These pictures show the station.
Note.
- Both through platforms are electrified.
- The bay platform could be operational, although the rails seem a bit rusty.
- The old K8 phone box, which I mentioned in London Underground: Platform Phone Boxes Given Listed Status.
- The quality fittings in the station.
Chesham services cross over to the Chesham branch to the West of the station.
London Underground: Platform Phone Boxes Given Listed Status
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on the BBC.
This is the sub-heading.
Four classic phone boxes on London Underground platforms have been Grade II-listed, Historic England has announced.
This is the first paragraph.
The K8 model, which came after the traditional red-panelled box, was designed to have a “modern and minimalist” appearance.
These are the four boxes.
Chalfont & Latimer Station
This box is at Chalfont & Latimer station.
Why is it maroon?
Chorleywood Station
This box is at Chorleywood station
It is maroon like the nearby one at Chalfont & Latimer station. Is it maroon for Metropolitan?
This box is next to a defibrillator. Could the K8 phone boxes be used to protect the defibrillators from the elements?
High Street Kensington Station
The box is on the platform at High Street Kensington station.
Why is it in dark blue? Dark blue is not Circle or District.
Northwick Park Station
The box is on the island platform at Northwick Park station.
I think it needs a bit of tender loving care, rather than listing.
