Moorgate station

Moorgate () is a central London railway terminus and connected London Underground station on Moorgate in the City of London. Main line railway services for Hertford North, Welwyn Garden City and Stevenage are operated by Great Northern, while the London Underground station is served by the Circle, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan and Northern lines. It is in London fare zone 1. The station was opened as Moorgate Street in 1865 by the Metropolitan Railway. In 1900, the City & South London Railway added the station to its network, and the Great Northern & City Railway began serving the station in 1904. In 1975, the Northern City Line platforms were the site of the Moorgate tube crash – at the time, the worst peacetime accident in the history of the London Underground – in which 43 people were killed. Thameslink branch services were withdrawn in the early 21st century, and a new ticket hall was built connected to the newly opened Elizabeth line at Liverpool Street in 2021, with through access to the rest of Liverpool Street Underground station.
