It is on the Jubilee line, between Canons Park and Kingsbury stations, and is in Travelcard Zone 4.

The name Queensbury did not, when it was chosen, refer to any pre-existing area.

It was coined by analogy with the adjacent Kingsbury station.

The station, and its local surroundings and characters were cited in the song "Queensbury Station" by the Berlin-based punk-jazz band The Magoo Brothers on their album "Beyond Believable", released on the Bouncing Corporation label in 1988.

The song was written by Paul Bonin and Melanie Hickford, who both grew up and lived in the area.
