Newbury Park: Central Line railway
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 25 Apr 2011
This is the view of the Central Line from the A12 Eastern Avenue bridge immediately south of Newbury Park station. In the distance the lines curve to the right and go into, and emerge from, separate tunnels going to, or coming from, Gants Hill station. However, the original railway through here, built by the Great Eastern Railway as their Woodford and Ilford Branch and opened in 1903, headed straight on towards Ilford. Passenger services to Ilford ceased in 1947 when the Gants Hill connection was made.
