===Fictional stations=== [[Walford East]] is a fictional District line station in the BBC television [[soap opera]] ''[[EastEnders]]'',<ref>{{cite web | url=http://underground-history.co.uk/walford.php | title=Underground Eastenders | work=underground-history.co.uk | date=27 April 2005 | access-date=15 February 2013}}</ref> and since February 2010 episodes have used [[Computer-generated imagery]] (CGI) of District line trains running into the station.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/eastenders/2010/02/get-your-anoraks-on-trains-are.shtml|title=Get your anoraks on ... trains are coming!|work=[[BBC Online]]|date=3 February 2010|access-date=15 February 2013}}</ref> The production tube map situates this station in place of Bromley-by-Bow. In the ''[[Sherlock (TV series)|Sherlock]]'' episode "[[The Empty Hearse]]", a fictional unopened terminus station called Sumatra Road (situated underneath the [[Houses of Parliament]] as a disused branch line from Westminster Station) was created for the episode's story of a terrorism plot. The station was actually filmed at [[Aldwych tube station|Aldwych]] with ex-Northern line [[London Underground 1972 Stock|1972 stock]] which caused continuity errors as deep-level trains and tunnels were used when the District line is sub-surface.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.buzzfeed.com/jimwaterson/the-london-underground-lines-in-sherlock-are-all-wrong | title=The London Underground Lines In "Sherlock" Are All Wrong | work=Buzzfeed | access-date=3 January 2014 | author=Waterson, Jim| date=2 January 2014 }}</ref> [[West Ashfield tube station]], despite its name, is a mock-up District line station in the third floor of a building used for training of [[TfL]] staff in a simulated environment; the "station" is slated to be closed by 2024.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.reynekedesigns.com/web/West_Ashfield_Simulated_LUL_Station.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170225164300/http://www.reynekedesigns.com/web/West_Ashfield_Simulated_LUL_Station.html |archive-date=25 February 2017 |title=West Ashfield Simulated LUL Station |publisher=Reyneke Designs |access-date=14 February 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|first=Jamie |last=Howells|title=Technical Feasibility Report for relocating from Lillie Bridge depot, including Ashfield House, for Commercial Development|year=2014|publisher=London Underground|url=http://content.tfl.gov.uk/lillie-bridge-depot-feasibility-report-redacted.pdf |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20221010/http://content.tfl.gov.uk/lillie-bridge-depot-feasibility-report-redacted.pdf |archive-date=10 October 2022 |url-status=live}}</ref> Maps within the facility show West Ashfield as a station on the District line between West Kensington and Earl's Court.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Co-isIBTKKg All the Stations: "West Ashfield Station - The Underground's Training Facility"]</ref>
