A busy moment at Kilburn with six tube trains in one shot. Closest to the camera is a Metropolitan line S Stock unit working a Watford semi fast service, which is seen overtaking a 1996 stock Jubilee line unit on 16th May 2014. This shot also shows how high the frequency is on the Jubilee line during rush hour, with the next train approaching Kilburn station straight after another train has departed. This high frequency is thanks to the moving block signalling system that allows the trains to run closer together.
