Edgware Road station, Metropolitan Railway, looking west, during construction. It can be seen that the walls, platforms and roof are substantially complete, although scaffolding is still in place below the latter. A man is working on the building between the platforms (background centre) perched somewhat precariously on a plank suspended between two of the windows. Piles of rubble are visible on both platforms. The tracks appear to be of a temporary nature.
