Greenford station
[8] The present station, adjacent to the original, was designed by Brian Lewis and built in the Central line extension of the 1935-40 New Works Programme of the London Passenger Transport Board.It was completed by Frederick Francis Charles Curtis and opened on 30 June 1947 after delay due to World War II.Operational responsibility for the station transferred from British Rail to London Transport with effect from 13 November 1967.[10] Until 2014 it remained the final London Underground station with a wooden-treaded escalator in service; all other such escalators were previously converted to fully metal treads, or removed altogether from sub-surface Underground stations in the wake of the fatal 1987 King's Cross fire.[citation needed] Services call at South Greenford, Castle Bar Park, Drayton Green and West Ealing and the journey time is just over 10 minutes.
