Info

Wood Lane is a disused station on the London Underground located in Shepherd's Bush, west London. It was latterly served by the Central line and from 1908 to 1920 was the western terminus of the Central line's precursor, the Central London Railway (CLR).
Wood Lane station was built to serve the 1908 Franco-British Exhibition and the 1908 Olympic Games. Its location was very confined and its configuration awkward, requiring alterations on a number of occasions to meet operational requirements.
It closed in 1947 following the opening of the nearby White City station. In 2008, a new Wood Lane station was opened on the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines.
