Dist:0.4km north<br/>The Piccadilly and West Brompton railway was the original name of the Piccadilly line. It was a true tube railway which had a station directly below that of the District line at Gloucester Road, and a separate entrance slightly to the west was provided. In 1985 this remained almost in original condition.
