(It seems to have disappeared altogether from the current TfL maps.) Correction: It's disappeared from any of the maps under the "Rail" tab on the maps page on the TfL site, but it's still on the Tube map as Imperial Wharf ("opening late 2009"). -- Richard J.

Don't you mean Imperial Wharf, or has the name been changed? *(It seems to have disappeared altogether from the current TfL maps.) I haven't heard of any name change. Good that it's on its way - when did Imperial Wharf first start appearing in the published timetables? |

That would be 1972-06-04 ;-) Seriously, I think it appeared on the London Connections map in early 2005, along with Shepherds Bush (WLL). Not sure about the printed timetable though. Best regards |

It's in the winter 2004 - 2005 printed timetable. Not sure about the one before, but not in the previous winter. |

Oh, right. What a stupid name for a station. Imagine when engineering work leads to trains terminating there, someone in Brighton or Milton Keynes seeing "Imperial Wharf" on the front of a train. If the developers wanted the station to have the same name as their development, they should have called their development Chelsea Harbour. |

If the developers wanted the station to have the same name as their development, they should have called their development Chelsea Harbour. They have. Imperial Wharf is the name of the development taking place along Townmead Road directly opposite Imperial Road which has been developed as a wider, smoother road (complete with bus lane just right for taxis to use) than Lots Road which does not have 'public' access right through to Townmead Road as there is a barrier at the west entrance to Chelsea Harbour. The whole Imperial Wharf development when completed is much larger than Chelsea Harbour -- Mike Hughes A Taxi driver licensed for London and Brighton at home in Tarring, West Sussex, England Interested in American trains real and model?

Imagine when engineering work leads to trains terminating there, someone in Brighton or Milton Keynes seeing "Imperial Wharf" on the front of a train. If the developers wanted the station to have the same name as their development, they should have called their development Chelsea Harbour. They have. Indeed - see http://www.imperialwharf.com. Imperial Wharf is the name of the development taking place along Townmead Road directly opposite Imperial Road which has been developed as a wider, smoother road (complete with bus lane just right for taxis to use) than Lots Road which does not have 'public' access right through to Townmead Road as there is a barrier at the west entrance to Chelsea Harbour. The C3 bus (Earl's Court - Clapham Jn) is allowed to go that way though! Do they not let you cabbies through? The whole Imperial Wharf development when completed is much larger than Chelsea Harbour. |
