Cricklewood railway station is in the London Borough of Barnet in North London, served by First Capital Connect trains. It is in Travelcard Zone 3.
It was built as Childs Hill and Cricklewood by the Midland Railway in 1868 when it built its extension to St. Pancras and acquired its present name in 1903. To the north of the station, a motive power depot was built with a large roundhouse in 1882, with a second in 1893. With this was built a large marshalling yard and, in later years, LMS Garratts would be seen with their massive trains of coal from Toton in the Notts and Derby coalfields.
The typical off-peak service is four trains per hour southbound to London, Wimbledon and Sutton, and four trains per hour northbound, of which two terminate at St Albans and two at Luton.
