Default LU Stock Transfer Routes

I was under the impression that the track which *should* have become
part of the Northern Heights project, running from Finsbury Park to
Highgate, was used to transfer stock from the GN&C route, up to about
1970.

Could be wrong, would someone confirm?

It was sometime between about 1970 and 1972, at which point I think a bridge
on the route was declared unsafe and shortly afterwards the flyover over the
ECML was demolished . At least one of the rail magazines (possibly Railway
World) has a picture of a transfer of 1938 stock taken (IIRC) at Kings Cross
published at about that time.
