Moorgate, also known as London Moorgate, is a central London railway terminus and connected London Underground station on Moorgate in the City of London. Weekday mainline railway services for Hertford, Welwyn Garden City and Letchworth are operated by Great Northern, while the Underground station is served by the Circle, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan and Northern lines.

The station was opened in 1865 by the Metropolitan Railway. In 1900 the City & South London Railway added the station to its network, under the name Moorgate Street, and the Great Northern & City Railway began serving the station in 1904. In 1975 it was the site of the Moorgate tube crash in which 43 people were killed—the worst accident in the history of the London Underground

Sub surface platforms

The Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines of the Underground system all use platforms 1 and 2, which are through platforms. For turning trains back at busy times, there are platforms 3 and 4 which are west-facing bays. Adjacent to these are platforms 5 and 6 of the former Thameslink trains service from Bedford and Luton. These are disused following the closure of the Moorgate branch from Farringdon junction as part of the Thameslink programme.

Deep level tube platforms

The Northern line of the Underground uses platforms 7 and 8, which are in a deep-level tube section of the station.

Deep level main line platforms

National Rail services on the Northern City Line use platforms 9 and 10, which are terminal platforms. Weekday train services run via the East Coast Main Line to Welwyn Garden City, and to Hertford North, Stevenage, Hitchin or Letchworth.

Moorgate was my first Deep tube station.

Not knowing what it look like at first, I use three colours for the tiles on the computer, white, green and dark green, then  I added signage and logos to finish the foreground.

 

 

 

 

 

The street level was based on one photo. By cropping, editing and add new street signage.  It ended up looking better than the real station photo.
 

Printing and gluing to the base board I cut out the window and left them as a signal  printed sheet. Once lit from behind it gave a great night time look.
