At the new Greenford station, the entrance hall was at ground level but the railway was on a viaduct, and thus became the first, and only, station on the London Underground to have escalators leading from street level UP to the trains.
Other tube railway promotions of the time were also producing poor responses, and none of the early tube railways were able to be built without the aid of substantial support from either a finance company or a contractor.
The name Central London Railway was used in 1872-3 for an unsuccessful north-south promotion sponsored by the Midland Railway and the South Eastern Railway, for a link between St Pancras and Charing Cross Stations.

At the new Greenford station, the entrance hall was at ground level but the railway was on a viaduct, and thus became the first, and only, station on the London Underground to have escalators leading from street level UP to the trains.
The company then decided to abandon its flat fare policy and their first fare change came in July 1907, when a fare of 3d or three old pence for a journey of eight stations or more was introduced, although the name "Two-Penny Tube" continued for many years.
Other tube railway promotions of the time were also producing poor responses, and none of the early tube railways were able to be built without the aid of substantial support from either a finance company or a contractor.

Tube railways built subsequently had adopted automatic signalling, and under the new ownership automatic signalling was installed in 1913, partly as part of a cost cutting exercise - there no longer needed to be as many staff on each train.
