Aldgate Station, London Underground (Metropolitan Line), 1876: The Metropolitan Line's Extension Eastwards Marks the Arrival of the Underground at Aldgate, Making it the Terminus for the Time Being This photograph, taken by an unknown artist for the Illustrated London News Ltd in 1876, offers a glimpse into the past as the Metropolitan Line of the London Underground Railway was extended eastwards for the first time. Aldgate Station, with its imposing front, stands as the terminus, showcasing the remarkable progress of the Victorian rail transport system. The scene exudes a sense of excitement and anticipation as the railways continued to revolutionize the way people moved around the city. The exterior of Aldgate Station, with its ornate brickwork and arched entrance, stands proudly against the backdrop of the bustling street scene. Pedestrians, dressed in Victorian attire, can be seen going about their daily business, seemingly unfazed by the presence of the new railway. The Metropolitan Line, which had opened in 1863, was the world's first underground railway, and its extension to Aldgate marked a significant milestone in the development of the London Underground. The line's extension would eventually reach Liverpool Street Station, further connecting the city and making commuting more convenient for its residents. This photograph is an invaluable record of a pivotal moment in the history of public transport in London, providing a fascinating insight into the city's past and the evolution of railways as an essential mode of transportation.
