Even then, they frequently were closed due to vandalism. Preston Road has good facilities on the platform (I think they close at 2100 or 2000), Kingsbury has facilities by the ticket barrier (also closed late evening), Burnt Oak has a free automatic cubicle by the entrance to Burnt Oak Library, Golders Green's facilities are horrid. -- Helen D.

Cockfosters (and I believe Oakwood) Station (LU) now charges 20p to use the toilets because of repeated vandalism. All profits are donated to charity. |

Perivale's are okay but seldom open when I sue the place (admittedly usually on Sundays). Stanmore's are open always as far as I can tell. -- Ian Jelf, MITG Birmingham, UK Registered Blue Badge Tourist Guide for London and the Heart of England http://www.bluebadge.demon.co.uk |
