Historia biográfica
The Watford and Edgware Railway Company was founded in the 1860s with the intention of constructing a railway line between Edgware and Watford, via Bushey Heath. The line was never constructed as the company were unable to raise the capital and met significant opposition from rival companies. In 1922 the company was purchased by the London Electric Railway Company who intended to use the rights of way obtained by the Watford and Edgware Railway Company to extend their Charing Cross, Euston and Hampstead Railway (the modern Northern Line). Work did not begin until 1935 but had not progressed beyond earthworks and tunnelling when the Second World War began and work ceased. It was not resumed after the war.
