Kilburn Park is an underground station on the London Underground in the London Borough of Brent . It is in the Travelcard tariff zone 2 on Cambridge Avenue. In 2014, 3.38 million passengers used the station served by the Bakerloo Line .

The station building, made of glazed terracotta bricks and designed by Stanley Heaps , is similar in style to that of Leslie Green , from whom most of the Bakerloo Line stations of the early 20th century come. Kilburn Park was one of the first London Underground stations to use escalators instead of elevators from the start . The station has been a listed building ( Grade II ) since 1979 .

The station opened on January 31, 1915. The north-western terminus of the Bakerloo Line was here for almost two weeks, until it was extended to Queen's Park on February 11 .
