The '''Baker Street & Waterloo line''', otherwise known as simply the '''Baker & Waterloo line''' or '''Bakerloo line''' ({{IPAc-en|ˌ|b|eɪ|k|ər|ˈ|l|uː}}), is a line of the [[London Underground]]. It is coloured brown on the [[Tube map]]. It runs partly on the surface and partly at deep level, from [[Elephant & Castle tube station|Elephant & Castle]] in south-east to Wealdstone in north-west of London. The lines serves 25 stations of which 15 are underground. The line is around {{convert|14.4|mi}} long.

The line gets its name because it goes through the stations [[Baker Street tube station]] and [[Waterloo tube station]]. North of [[Queens Park tube station|Queens Park]], the line runs next to the [[West Coast Main Line]].

==Extension to Camberwell==
The extension to [[Camberwell]] was a plan to extend the Bakerloo Line. The project was to start at the late 1940s, but they cancelled it for an unknown reason. Then in the 21st century, they revised the extension [[plan]] and [[proposed]] it again. So far, nothing has been agreed. The 1940s [[version]] of the extension had two stations. One [[rumour]] of why they [[cancelled]] the project was because Camberwell was quite a bad location to do further extensions.

==Former Stations==
===Watford Branch===
Between 1917 and 1982, Bakerloo line trains continued along the DC line past [[Harrow & Wealdstone tube station|Harrow & Wealdstone]] to [[Watford Junction railway station|Watford Junction]]. These stations continue to be served by [[London Overground]].
