Brixton tube station
Brixton is a London Underground station on Brixton Road in the Brixton district of the London Borough of Lambeth, South London. The station is the southern terminus of the Victoria line. The station was opened on 23 July 1971 by the London Transport Executive. It has high usage for an inner suburban station with 27.2 million entries and exits during 2013.
==Design==
From the ticket hall, three escalators take passengers to and from the platforms. There are also passenger lifts between street level, the ticket hall and the platforms to provide step free access.〔〔
The station is laid out as a two-track terminus with a scissors crossover north of the station, and the line continues for a short distance south of the station platforms to form a pair of sidings. These are used for the overnight stabling of a pair of trains, which then form the mornings' first two northbound services.
There has been speculation regarding the possibility of extending the Victoria line past Brixton and putting in a loop that trains would run around with a single-platform station under Herne Hill railway station. Arguably this would speed up operations on the Victoria line by reducing the number of conflicting train movements at the scissors crossover. However, as the Victoria line is already very heavily loaded and would likely not cope well with any extra passengers, such considerations may well prevent such a plan going any further.
