This is the view from a train on the Epping Ongar Heritage Railway at the point where trains return to North Weald station. It is just 100 metres between the end of the Epping Ongar running line and the end of the Central Line. The fact that the line was electrified between 1957 and its closure in 1994 can be seen in artefacts as here. For more about the history of the line see https://www.eorailway.co.uk/the-railway/history/ and https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4386768 which has a photograph of the link now between the Central line and the Epping Ongar Railway.
