The station is served by the District and Piccadilly lines and is in Travelcard Zone 3. On the District line, it is between Chiswick Park and Ealing Common stations, and on the Piccadilly line it is between Hammersmith (Turnham Green in the early mornings and late evenings) and Ealing Common stations.〔 Acton Town station was opened as Mill Hill Park on 1 July 1879 by the District Railway (DR, now the District line). It remained as a terminus until on 1 May 1883 and 23 June 1903 the DR opened two branches from Acton Town to Hounslow Town and Park Royal & Twyford Abbey respectively. On 4 July 1932 the Piccadilly line was extended to Acton Town. District line services to both the Hounslow and Uxbridge branches were withdrawn completely on 9 and 10 October 1964 after which operations were provided by the Piccadilly line alone. The original brick-built station was built in 1879 and in February 1910 the station building was reconstructed.〔 On 1 March 1910 the station was given its present name.〔 In 1931 and 1932 the station was rebuilt again in preparation for transferring the Uxbridge branch service from the District line to the Piccadilly line.〔 The new station was designed by Charles Holden〔 in a modern European geometric style using brick, reinforced concrete and glass.〔 ==Location== The station is at the junction of Gunnersbury Lane (A4000) and Bollo Lane.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Acton Town Tube Station )〕 To the south-west of the station is the former Acton Works,〔 central overhaul and engineering works for the London Underground. It is now home to the London Transport Museum's reserve collection of rail and road vehicles〔 (as known as London Transport Museum Depot or Museum Depot). The museum depot is opened to the public on a number of weekends throughout the year. To the north of the station is the District line's Ealing Common Depot.〔 Frank Pick House is near the station, on Gunnersbury Lane.〔 It is named after Frank Pick, the London Passenger Transport Board's chief executive. It is home to one of the engineering departments of the London Underground.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Acton Town tube station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
