Now, of course, the Stratford/North Woolwich section is a tram service
with additional stops and 3rd rail has been replaced by overhead cables
until South Acton Station.

As for the Woolwich Ferry, I don't recall many pedestrians ever using
it. It was always busy with vehicles.

I didn't mean the current woolwich ferry , I remember reading somewhere
that there was a foot ferry to north woolwich that landed at a quay just
near the station.

It's a foot tunnel. I've never heard of a foot ferry in Woolwich.
Pedestrians are of course allowed on the car ferry.

Interesting, didn't know there was a foot tunnel at woolwich.

Though from a nostalgia-fuelled visit last year it is at times more a
cycle tunnel - and I don't mean the cyclists "scooting" their bike where
it's quiet the way they used to 60 years ago.
