AIUI the Met platforms at Swiss Cottage, and the Met stations at Lords and
Marlborough Road closed at the same time (20 November 1939) as the Bakerloo
opened between Baker Street and Finchley Road, and took over the stopping
services from there to Stanmore. At Swiss Cottage supplementary entrances
were provided, but it was essentially a case of replacing the Met platforms
with the tube ones.
