Ellenbrook: Site of the former Ellenbrook Lane level crossing
This is the point at which the former Hatfield & St Albans Railway crossed Ellenbrook Lane. Nast Hyde Halt was to the left. The railway was in use until the 1960s.

Hatfield: Route of the former Hatfield & St Albans Railway
The Hatfield & St Albans Railway opened their line through here, linking the two towns, in 1865. The railway was subsequently absorbed into the Great Northern Railway in 1883. Passenger services on the railway were an early casualty of the pre-Beeching era of British Railways, closing just 3 years into Nationalization in 1951. Freight traffic on the line lingered into the 1960s.
Today the route of the railway forms the Alban Way, or the Smallford Trail, and a section of National Cycle Network Route 61.

Hatfield: Site of the former Nast Hyde Halt
The Hatfield & St Albans Railway opened their line through here, linking the two towns, in 1865. The railway was subsequently absorbed into the Great Northern Railway in 1883, but Nast Hyde Halt was not built until 1910. Passenger services on the railway were an early casualty of the pre-Beeching era of British Railways, closing just 3 years into Nationalization in 1951, with the halt obviously closing at the same time. Freight traffic on the line lingered into the 1960s, and the track was still in use in 1967 as evidenced by Nick Catford's photograph from a similar viewpoint here http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/n/nast_hyde_halt/index1.shtml
Today the route of the railway forms the Alban Way, or the Smallford Trail, and a section of National Cycle Network Route 61.
