Does Northern Line Run All Night

But let’s be honest: even when it’s running during the day, the Northern Line has the energy of a drama student who hasn’t slept in three days. It has two branches (Bank and Charing Cross), and it loves to split at Camden Town. You step on a train thinking you’re heading to Morden, and suddenly you’re being whisked to High Barnet because you sat in the wrong carriage. This is not a mistake you make twice.

At night, this split is even more treacherous. The Night Tube service only covers the central section (between Morden and Camden Town) and the eastern branch to High Barnet. That means if you want to go to Edgware or Mill Hill East after midnight? Tough luck, pal—you’re getting a night bus with a man who’s arguing with an invisible parrot.

The “Cockfosters” Conspiracy

Yes, there is a station called Cockfosters. It’s real, and it’s at the northern end of the Piccadilly Line, not the Northern, but everyone asks about it. If you’re on the Northern Line after midnight, the most exotic you’ll get is High Barnet—which sounds like a retirement home for fashionable hats. Do not be fooled by the name; there are no high barnets there, just tired commuters.

Another surprising fact: The Northern Line was originally called the “Hampstead, Charing Cross, and Waterloo Electric Railway.” That name was dropped because it took longer to say than the actual journey. Today, it’s the deepest tube line in London, going 221 feet (67 meters) below ground at Hampstead Heath. That’s deeper than the height of the Tower of London. Seriously—if you drop your Oyster card at Hampstead, it becomes a buried treasure.
