Legal notice

The publisher, the licences behind the data, and the limits of what this guide can promise.

Publisher

This site is run by David Franco Aguirre, trading as GoRandom, Avenida Lehendakari Aguirre, 81 — 48015 Bilbao (Bizkaia), Spain. Written enquiries go to [email protected], which is read by the same person who builds the pages.

No connection with Transport for London

londontube.org has no commercial, contractual or editorial relationship with Transport for London, with London Underground Limited or with any of their suppliers. Nobody at the operator commissions, approves, funds or reviews what appears here, and nothing on this site should be read as a statement made on their behalf. Where this guide and tfl.gov.uk disagree, tfl.gov.uk is right and this page is the one that needs fixing.

Trade marks and the roundel

Underground, Tube, Oyster, the names of the lines and the bar-and-circle roundel are registered marks belonging to Transport for London. They appear in this guide for one purpose only: identifying the services being described, which is what trade mark law permits and what any timetable has to do. The roundel itself is deliberately absent from the design of this site — the logo in the header is our own drawing and borrows nothing from it — so that no reader can mistake these pages for an official publication.

Source data and the licences it carries

Three licences govern the material reused here, and each carries conditions we are bound by. The network, timetable, accessibility and fare data is Powered by TfL Open Data and released under the Open Government Licence v2.0, which requires that attribution. Everything about places near a station is © OpenStreetMap contributors under the Open Database Licence (ODbL). The map sheet is an adaptation of London Underground Overground DLR Crossrail map by the Wikimedia Commons contributor Sameboat, licensed CC BY-SA 4.0; because that licence is a share-alike one, the version published here, with our band and logo, is released under CC BY-SA 4.0 as well. Opening dates and historical names come from Wikipedia, also CC BY-SA 4.0. The full inventory, source by source, is in the table below.

Where the information comes from

This site does not print a source note on every page, so here is the full answer in one place. None of it makes londontube.org an official source: it is an independent guide built on open data.

InformationSource
Lines, stations and route orderTransport for London Unified API (/Line/Mode/tube and the ordered route sequences). Powered by TfL Open Data, published under the Open Government Licence v2.0.
Fare zones, coordinates, lifts and step-free accessTfL Unified API StopPoint records for each station, read for the child station rather than the hub.
First and last trains, and running times between stationsTfL’s published timetables, per station, line, direction and day type. Where TfL returns an incomplete timetable the missing day types are rebuilt from the trains reaching that station from further up the line; the about page lists the stations this affects.
FaresTfL’s Single Fare Finder for single pay as you go and cash fares. Caps, Travelcard prices and the rules on the Oyster and contactless page come from TfL’s fares pages and its adult rate price list, with the date each was read shown on the page.
Opening dates, former names and passenger numbersWikipedia’s list of London Underground stations (CC BY-SA 4.0), matched station by station against the TfL list. Passenger figures are entries and exits in 2024.
Places near a station© OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database Licence (ODbL).
The tube mapAn unofficial schematic, “London Underground Overground DLR Crossrail map” by Sameboat on Wikimedia Commons, licensed CC BY-SA 4.0; our adaptation (logo and frame) is shared under the same licence. The official TfL map is not reproduced here.
The service status boardNo live feed. The board compares the current time in London with TfL’s published timetable and says only whether a line is within its service hours. It is not a real-time disruption feed and does not claim to be.
PhotographsWikimedia Commons, under the free licences listed below. No press, operator or stock photography is used, and no official card artwork is reproduced.

Accuracy, and the limits of it

Every page is rebuilt from the captured data rather than edited by hand, which removes one class of error and cannot remove the others: a source can be wrong, a capture can age, and engineering work can close a line the week after a build. Weekend closures, replacement buses and short-notice changes are exactly the things this site is least able to know. Check tfl.gov.uk before you travel. No liability is accepted for a journey planned on the strength of these pages, for a connection missed, or for a fare that turns out to differ from the one shown.

Photographs

Every photograph on this site is a Wikimedia Commons file under a free licence; no press, operator or stock imagery is used, and no official ticket artwork is reproduced. Where the original is share-alike, our crop is published under the same terms:

Governing law

This notice and the use of this site are governed by the law of England and Wales, without prejudice to the rights that consumer legislation gives a reader in their own country of residence, and to the data protection rules set out separately in the privacy policy.
