At around 8:20am on Wednesday, May 14, a man boarded a Bakerloo Line train at Maida Vale Underground station.
He was sexually assaulted by a fellow male passenger during the journey, police say.
The suspect soon fled the scene as he stepped off the train at London Paddington Underground station.
Investigators have released an image of a man they believe may have information which could help their investigation.
He is not formally identified as a suspect.
Anyone who recognises him is being urged to contact officials.
The British Transport Police said in a statement: “Anyone who recognises him is asked to contact British Transport Police by texting 61016 or by calling 0800 40 50 40, quoting reference 215 of 14 May.
“You can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
It comes after a 16-year-old boy was stabbed to death at a busy train station by another teen on Wednesday.
Officers raced to Seaford Station in East Sussex at 5pm this evening, where they arrested the suspect, who is also 16-years-old.
Emergency services tried desperately to revive the victim, who was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.
