The Uxbridge branch opened on July 4th 1904 so I assume it is Ruislip

I now go along with Eastcote also, I assumed it to he Ruislip as it opened the same day as the line, while Eastcote aparently opened late, was worth a try though.Having doubts about Eastcote mind, so Ruislip or bust which I obviously doubt.

It's neither Eastcote, Ruslip or anywhere on the Uxbridge Branch, I'm afraid.
There's no clue available, either...

Then perhaps the date is to do with Piccadilly line taking over from the District line on stretch between Acton town & South Harrow, as to the station I have no idea, but I will have a go at .... the pin has dropped on Alperton?

Your answers are all on the right Line, but your thinking is on the wrong lines.

Third time lucky, The connection must be US Independence day then, so a station with an American theme would be Boston Manor?

I should have looked closer at the clock earlier for the American connection
