You won't find Strand Station on the London Underground map any more.
It opened in 1907 and was named after the street on which it was located.
The station building is close to the junction of The Strand and Surrey Street, near Aldwych and was at one time named Aldwych too.
Strand was actually the terminus and only station on the short Piccadilly line branch from Holborn
The station finally closed in 1994 when the cost of replacing its lifts were considered too high for the income generated.
