The railway line from Stratford to Broxbourne via Waltham Cross was opened by the Northern & Eastern Railway on 15th September 1840. The next station in this (the up) direction is Angel Road although not many trains stop there. Data now shows it as the least used station in London - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_Road_railway_station
