Silver Street
Silver Street station, in the Edmonton district of north London, looking south on 27th September 2019. This station was opened by the GER on 22nd July 1872 and has, with the line, been part of London Overground since 31st May 2015. Demolition by British Rail of the Victorian buildings on the down platform (right) have given the station a rather unfortunate lopsided appearance. The down platform now has the most paltry of waiting shelters, not even one of the ubiquitous bus stop style ones, and which offers little protection from the elements, especially when the rain slants down as it started to do while I was waiting there on this day.
