Looking south, towards Moorgate, from the south end of platform 2. The railway is underground from here to the terminus at Moorgate. As clearance in the tunnels is insufficient for overhead electrification, the lines through them are electrified on the 750V DC third rail system, Drayton Park station being the changeover point between that and 25kV 50Hz AC overhead electrification.
