Hackney Chord: still in use?
When, many, many years ago British Rail decided to close
Broad Street Station, as a sop to commuters coming via Canonbury Tunnel, they built a chord in Hackney to enable trains to run from the North London Line to Liverpool Street during the morning rush hour. I assume these rush hour services were abandoned decades ago. I notice that the spur is still there and that the rails - and absence of rust - suggest it is still occasionally utilised. Does anyone know what it used for? |
