View from the end of the platform at New Barnet station
The Great Northern Railway opened its line between Maiden Lane and Peterborough on 7th August 1850 on which date Barnet station opened. On 1st May 1884, the station was renamed New Barnet.
This is the view from the end of the up slow platform. Trains go from here to Moorgate. To the left is a siding. The fast lines are to the right. As is the case with many stations now, where it is feasible as here, the fast lines are protected by railings. The next station in this direction is Oakleigh Park.

New Barnet Station
The station sign and lights look decidedly care worn in this view from 1976. The electrification of the Kings Cross suburban services has been underway since 1973 and the wires are up but the juice hasn't been turned on yet - it will be completed in 1978. The local services remain in the hands of the much maligned Cravens diesel multiple units, one of which is seen arriving with a northbound service. The station has subsequently had a complete facelift and the Cravens units are a distant memory.
