The railway line between Seven Sisters and Palace Gates was opened by the Great Eastern Railway on 1st January 1878 and closed by British Railways to passengers on 7th January 1963 and completely on 5th October 1964. Apart from its route and some of the bridges, very little evidence that it ever existed remains. This is the view from the bridge carrying Westbury Avenue over the line and looks in the direction of West Green station. The back of the houses in Mannock Road are to the left and those of Graham Road to the right. A full account of the line with photographs can be seen at http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/w/west_green/index.shtml
