I know Ickenham wasn't the only station on the present network that was officially opened as a halt or a platform,a fact that was recorded on its' signboards at the time.
I'm interested in anyone's knowledge of such stopping places that were either:
a) scheduled to become part of the Underground but never did:-eg Mill Hill The Hale(was that ever designated halt or platform?) or Denham Golf Club Platform(was that ever included in Central Line extension plans?)
b) at some point mooted to be opened as a halt or platform on the more rural parts of the system but never actually opened at all.
Incidentally, there isn't really a standard definition for halt or platform status elsewhere except a general presumption facilities at such places would be limited compared to stations, though not necessarily the train services at them, nor even that they would be unstaffed.
