A Northern Line 1972 Mk1 stock train is about to pass under Church Lane bridge, East Finchley, as it heads southbound on a Morden via Bank service on a very warm and sunny day on 15 September 1996. The driver has opened the cab door for a bit of fresh air; a common practice during summer months back then when this older stock was still in service. This part of the line is on the former LNER railway to Mill Hill East & High Barnet; the Mill Hill East branch originally ran to Edgware via Mill Hill (The Hale). The line remained open for goods until 29th February 1964 when it closed completely.
