Where the station is now, there used to be platforms on the
London,Tilbury and Southend tracks, which were closed, I think at the
time of the electrification in about 1960. The derelict platforms can
still be seen at several of the stations on the line.


Except at West Ham, which was re-opened and trains stop there again.
All the stations between Barking and West Ham have this derelict
platform, such a waste.




As do Becontree, Dagenham East and Hornchurch.

Thanks for that. I dont go 'that far out' Barking is my limit ;-)
