3. Kensington (Olympia) passengers are not recorded separately from London Overground passengers. Colindale and Kentish Town stations were closed throughout 2024.
4. The method of calculating usage changed in 2018 from estimates based on survey counts carried out on a few days to actual counts of gate entry date for each day. ^[1]
5. The ranking of Tottenham Court Road was affected in 2015, as the Central line was not stopping there between 5 January and 7 December.
