The railway cuts through Ilford Town Centre in a cutting, which burrows underneath the Exchange Mall, before arriving at Ilford station. The two tracks on the left are for fast trains from Liverpool Street to Southend Victoria, Essex and East Anglia, whilst the two tracks on the right handle the suburban services between Liverpool Street and Shenfield (with an occasional train to Southminster). View taken from the Hainault Street bridge, looking towards Ilford Station. The Ilford Exchange is in the centre of the photo, whilst above and beyond that is the BT tower on Ilford Hill.
