Gospel Oak - Barking
-- Does anyone know how much freight traffic there is on the Gospel Oak -
Barking line, particularly in the Upper Holloway area, and particularly at
night?
I used to live right next to the track just south of Walthamstow Queens Road
station.
The two carriage metro trains were hardly noticed (2/hour). The goods
trains used to be fairly frequent when I was home (Weekdays From 1800).
They were usually them same time each night. One used to pass us at 23:05
which was particularly long (And heavy-well shook the walls of my flat).
Not sure if there are any freight timetables available ?
I imagine the same trains would pass thro Holloway.
Is the current level likely to increase in the future - I heard something
about routing all the Euro tunnel traffice that way.
thanks
Slim
