Default Question about Broad Street

Talking of Broad Street, what happenned to the services that used to
operate into this station?

By the time it closed there was very little using it anyway. Most of the
services were just changed to go past it on the North London Line.
There was briefly a service from Watford that was diverted into
Liverpool Street over a very sharp curve that was newly built. That's
why Watford is one of the destinations you can see when the blinds flip
over at Liverpool Street.

I also see, from looking elsewhere that
Broad Street had an Underground station. What happenned to this?

That was just a subway connection to Liverpool Street underground:
