A district line train approaches Upminster Bridge station
The London, Tilbury & Southend Railway opened its line from Forest Gate via Barking and Dagenham Dock to Tilbury in 1854. In 1858 the company opened a cut off between Bow and Barking.
What is now the C2C line was opened in 1885 by the London, Tilbury & Southend Railway between Barking and Upminster, and a station was opened at Dagenham (East) the same year. No further stations opened on the line until Gale Street Halt (now Becontree) in 1926, followed by Hornchurch, Heathway (later renamed Dagenham Heathway from 1st May 1949) and Upney on 12th September 1932. On the same date as these stations opened in 1932, the District line was extended over new tracks alongside the existing line between Barking and Upminster. The present C2C line therefore dates from 1885 and the present District line from 1932. Upminster Bridge station was opened on 17th December 1934.
This view is from the end of the up platform and looks in the direction of Upminster. The two C2C lines are to the right beyond the up District line. A train bound for Ealing Broadway is approaching.
