Holborn tube station
Holborn, or Holborn Kingsway, was a tube station located on the Central line. It was also serviced by two other lines, both depicted in blue, on a map of the London Underground network. On the Central Line, Holborn was located between Tottenham Court Road and Chancery Lane. On the main blue line heading from south-west to north-east, Holborn was located between Covent Garden and Russell Square. On the final blue line, Holborn was the terminus on a short line directly from Aldwych. Holborn wasn't on the Circle line, but was located within its perimeter.
