History of Northern Line
The centre of the Northern Line was developed by two railway companies Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway and the City & South London Railway almost a century ago. This construction plan further gave birth to two northern and two central branches plus a southern one. The construction plans for these branches were carried out on such a large scale that three separate railway companies needed to work together in order to start the southern branch of Northern Line between the 1920s and 1930s, an additional track was also added to new stations named Morden and Edgware.
