Distance

North end of Drayton Park station (2)
Looking north from the north end of platform 2, towards the junction with the East Coast Main Line at Finsbury Park. The large "6" sign indicates that six car trains (which presumably only just fit into the platform) must stop there, hence the mirror to enable drivers to see the train doors. On the left, the Emirates Stadium (home of Arsenal Football Club) towers over the railway.

North end of Drayton Park station (1)
Looking north from the north end of platform 1, towards the junction with the East Coast Main Line at Finsbury Park. The rectangular concrete tunnel through which the Up line passes to reach Drayton Park is actually a flyover, carrying the freight only link from the East Coast Main Line to the North London Line; the overhead wires for this line can just be seen above the retaining wall on the right. On the left, the Emirates Stadium (home of Arsenal Football Club) towers over the railway.

Site of depot, Drayton Park station
Prior to its takeover by British Rail in 1976, the Great Northern & City Railway was a self contained operation; I believe its train depot was here, on the west side of Drayton Park station. It is somewhat surprising that the land has not been built on.

Drayton Park station platform (1)
Looking north along platform 2 (one side of a narrow island platform) towards Finsbury Park. The white bridge over the station provides access to the Emirates Stadium (home of Arsenal Football Club), which can just be seen between the station canopy and the new block of flats on the left. The greenery next to the railway is, I believe, on the site of the train depot which closed when this line became part of British Rail in 1976. Drayton Park station is the changeover point between the 750V DC third rail and 25kV 50Hz AC overhead electrification systems, hence the presence of the infrastructure for both.
