- The two Paddington stations operate as a combined station with shared usage statistics.
- The ranking of Tottenham Court Road was affected in 2011, as the Northern Line was not stopping there between 3 April and 28 November, and in 2015, as the Central line was not stopping there between 5 January and 7 December.
