'''Barbican''' is a [[London Underground]]
The station is on the [[Circle line (London Underground)|Circle]], [[Hammersmith & City line|Hammersmith & City]] and [[Metropolitan line|Metropolitan]] lines between [[Farringdon station|Farringdon]] and [[Moorgate tube station|Moorgate]] stations, and is located in [[List of stations in London fare zone 1|Travelcard Zone 1]].<ref>{{cite map/Standard Tube Map}}</ref> Platform 2, serving westbound trains, is connected by a single lift to {{rws|Farringdon}} station on the [[Elizabeth line]]. Until 2009, Barbican was additionally served by [[Thameslink (route)|Thameslink]] services to and from Moorgate.<ref>{{cite web |title=Taking a look inside Crossrail's Farringdon station |url=https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/taking-a-look-inside-crossrails-farringdon-station-35739/ |website=www.ianvisits.co.uk |date=17 March 2020 |access-date=25 May 2022}}</ref>

==History==
The station was opened with the name '''Aldersgate Street''' on 23 December 1865<ref name=rename/> on the Moorgate extension from Farringdon.<ref name="Butt14" /><ref name=culgh&c>{{cite web |url=http://www.davros.org/rail/culg/hammersmith.html |work=Clive's Underground Line Guides |title=Hammersmith & City line |last=Feather |first=Clive |access-date=28 April 2015 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150408175541/http://www.davros.org/rail/culg/hammersmith.html |archive-date=8 April 2015}}</ref> It was built on the site of an earlier building at 134 Aldersgate Street, which for many years had a sign claiming "This was [[William Shakespeare|Shakespeare]]'s House".<ref>{{cite book | last=Winter | first=William | title=Seeing Europe with Famous Authors: Literary Shrines of London | publisher=Moffat, Yard & Co | year=1910 | ___location=London | url=http://www.publishingcentral.com/library/europe-with-authors-1_16.html | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150428155828/http://publishingcentral.com/library/europe-with-authors-1_16.html | archive-date=28 April 2015 | url-status=dead | access-date=1 June 2007 }}</ref> The building was very close to the nearby [[Fortune Playhouse]], and a subsidy roll from 1598 shows a "William Shakespeare" as the owner of the property, however, there is no documentary evidence indicating they and the playwright were the same person.

Increasing traffic by other companies, including goods traffic, led to the track between [[London King's Cross railway station|King's Cross]] and Moorgate being widened to four tracks in 1868; the route was called the '[[Widened Lines|City Widened Lines]]'. Suburban services from the Midland Railway ran via Kentish Town and the Great Northern Railway ran via Kings Cross. [[British Rail]] services to Moorgate were initially steam operated before being converted to Cravens-built diesel multiple units and [[British Rail Class 31]] locomotives class hauling non-corridor stock which remained in operation until the mid-1970s.
Passenger trains from the [[Great Northern Railway (Great Britain)|Great Northern line]], via the York Road and Hotel curves at [[London King's Cross railway station|King's Cross]] to the [[Widened Lines]], ran until the Great Northern's electrification on 1976. The City Widened Lines were renamed the Moorgate line<ref name="nr_so">{{cite book |author=Network Rail |author-link=Network Rail |title=South Zone Sectional Appendix |volume=Module SO |date=April 2001 |id=SO/SA/001A |page=SO280 1/119 }} (Retrieved 2011-12-10)</ref> when overhead electrification was installed in 1982, allowing the Midland City Line service to run from Bedford via the Midland Main Line to Moorgate on the [[Thameslink (route)|Thameslink]] service. The Thameslink platforms at Barbican were closed again in March 2009 as part of the [[Thameslink Programme]] to allow {{stl|LUL|Farringdon}} to have its main line platforms extended across Thameslink's Moorgate branch.<ref name=culgh&c/><ref name="thameslinkfaq">{{cite web | url=http://www.thameslinkprogramme.co.uk/faqs/faqs_categories/public_index#question_43 | title=Thameslink Programme - FAQ | publisher=First Capital Connect | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090206014150/http://thameslinkprogramme.co.uk/faqs/faqs_categories/public_index#question_22 |archive-date=6 February 2009 |url-status=dead}}</ref> As a result, Barbican now serves Underground lines only.
