According to Wikipedia, Dollis Hill station was built in 1909. That cannot be the whole story as the current station is in 1930s art deco style which contrasts with Willesden Green, the next station towards Central London.
Also according to wikipedia, it became part of the Stanmore branch of what was then the Bakerloo Line in November 1939.
Presumably then, it was demolished and completely rebuilt, possibly as part of the four tracking of the Metropolitan Railway north west of Finchley Road.
Or is Wikipedia just wrong and the station was built in 1939 rather than 1909?
