Arnos Grove tube station is a Tube Station on the Piccadilly Line , in Travelcard Zone 4 . It is located near Arnos Park on Bowes Road, London N11 1AN. The station is one of the Charles Holden -designed stations on the Cockfosters extension of the line, making a unified architectural set with similar stations like Wood Green and Bounds Green . It was opened in 1932. The name was chosen after public deliberation: alternatives were 'Arnos Park', 'Bowes Road', and 'Southgate'. The ticket hall is cylindrical, and contains a now disused ticket office in the centre. This now houses an exhibition about the station and line. Three parallel train tracks pass through the station, with two double-sided platforms positioned between the central track and the outer tracks. The edges of the platforms are labelled platform 1 and 2, and platform 3 and 4, respectively, in such a way that the two outer tracks are accessible by platforms 1 and 4, and the central track, usually used by trains that turn round at Arnos Grove station, is accessible via platforms 2 and 3. Platforms 1 and 2 are designated for trains to Cockfosters, platforms 3 and 4 to Central London. During daytime, some trains turn round at Arnos Grove, proceeding back via Central London to Northfields . Other interesting things about the station include:
