I could quite well be because they were built around the same time, and are also termini. Mind you, Uxbridge actually is much, much more lively than Cockfosters, but I suspect that is because Cockfosters is actually a suburb as opposed to Uxbridge, which feels much more like a village.

Gerrards Cross Station is an efficient station on the corridor between London and the suburbs that accommodate many expats and their families. I was able to purchase an all day train pass here and the staff here were extremely helpful. Even pointing out that if I were interested in waiting another 45 minutes that the passes would come down in price. The trains that whiz through are high speed and extremely clean. Seats are padded for comfort and the locals know enough about common decency, something lacking here in the US (NY metro lines were well kept too, however) since I sometimes loathe riding BART. Bart and Muni trains are outdated, old, and host patrons that apparently feel that littering, loitering, and using public floors as urination targets. And on top of all this, the locals respect each other in regards to the close proximity of the seated and standing so no one was playing loud music or just the overall loud din that I encounter on a daily basis. A good example is to ride the Richmond line in the evening and then go ride the trains in Europe. Your perception of public transportation will never be the same again.

The penultimate station on the west end of the Piccadilly Line, Hatton Cross is the last stop…read morebefore the line splits to Heathrow's Terminal 5 or Terminals 1-2-3 and 4. I've spent a good bit of time here in the past, since it seems that no matter which time I'm flying out of LHR, the train is always going the OTHER way! It's Underground, so it's out of the rain and the cold. There is plenty of seating for waiting. Upstairs is a rather functional and boring building with waiting areas for the bus stations to local places and a good amount of room for dropping off/picking up friends. It might actually be easier to get here, compared to the regular places at the airport! I did spot a taxi stand. There is no step-free access, which can be a challenge if you have heavy luggage. The station is in Zone 6.

The platforms at Hatton Cross are in a cut and cover tunnel. The platform tiling on the central columns features patterns derived from the British Airways Speedbird logo. The station building is a single-storey "bo"x and has a bus station immediately outside which serves the airport and surrounding area.

It's a nice station that is a bit more "overground" than "underground", meaning that it just doesn't look like a Tube station. Pinner is in Travelcard Zone 5, between North Harrow and Northwood Hills on the Amersham/Chesham branch. Trains from here into London go to Baker Street and sometimes further. There is a staffed ticket booth and automated ticket vending machines as well as the usual ticket barricades and Oyster readers. Surprisingly, this station is completely step-free, which earns it a fourth star in my rating guidelines. Just outside and across the way is a full-size Sainsbury's and a mini-cab taxi office is attached to the station. Note that the Tube does not run all night. There is a last train into London,generally between 12:00-12:30 am on weeknights and 11:30-12:00 on Sunday's.

During peak times,only All Stations or Semi-fast trains stops at Pinner so the frequency is but less compared to Harrow-on-the-hill but not a big issue. If I happen to get a slow train I jump into a fast at Harrow-on-the-hill. The southbound platform has a news agents and also toilet facilities reminding one of how stations were in the past. A good mix of old and new the station is a small two platform one. The main entrance to the station is to the south-bound however the northbound has an exit which is open during peak times which is convenient for me. The station car park is huge and is attached to a large Sainsbury's.

Other than that, while it's a covered station (really, it's the bottom level of a parking garage/car park) the sides are open, which doesn't protect you from the temps. But at least it's easy to navigate, and the stands are clearly marked and arranged by direction (e.g., all buses to Windsor leave from stand 8).

They forgot about the basic needs of someone waiting for a bus. The buses are not that frequent...between every 30 minutes to around 90 minutes. A three mile journey to the residential areas can easily take over 30 minutes, plus waiting time. The only shelter is provided to the BUS DRIVERS who have an air conditioned canteen The PAYING COMMUTER gets treated like dirt, that is why they pay a bomb for the so called "service" and have to tolerate THIRD WORLD conditions: NO PROTECTION from wind, rain or snow NO ADEQUATE SEATS NO TOILETS NO WAITING ROOM it's only useful if you are coming from the train station to Windsor or Heathrow where buses are a bit more frequent. For locals it is a taxpayers nightmare, especially for the elderly and disabled, or those with young children, pushchairs or heavy bags. The old station was really ugly This new station is really useless

The bus station is not large as such but has a rectangular layout with bus stops on both sides with waiting space in between. The stops are clearly marked and there is an electronic arrival/departure timing boards showing the list of bus routes where buses are expected. The station has a newsagent that sells stuff you need during your travel and also has option to top up the Oyster card as well. There is a small 'Treats' snack shack where you can get small bites and drinks. The station gets extremely crowded during peak times. One of the popular route is 140 which is the service to Heathrow Airport, and is a 24 hr service. As I said, it delivers but nothing to rave about.

It has always had a bit of an ongoing thing where it plays classical music throughout the building - I think there was some old thing where classical music prevents kids from staying at a location. Regardless, it's quite nice (although that may be my age aiding that opinion!). The actual layout is a bit of a mess as the buses often get backed up trying to get into the stops around the back of the station as it just takes a little traffic and it all jams up. Plus whenever a bus stops at the first stop around the back, it inevitably jams everything up again. Sadly though, it's a victim of its own success as there simply isn't the footprint available to change the layout to something better since it backs directly onto the underground tracks.

Harrow on the Hill is a meet point for several branches of the Metropolitan line heading South to London (Uxbridge, Watford, Chesham, Amersham), as well as the Chiltern trains. As such it can be a great meeting place, but it also become a bottle neck during rush hour. There is a bus depot just as you exit the station and the mall is just across the street The station also has a Cafe Nero (no seating area) right by the ticket booth and a Costa Coffee (with seating area) just before you enter the station I gave it only 3 stars as the station tends to be on the dirty side and the waiting rooms often smell like pee
