All Saints

DLR unit no.52 from Canary Wharf to Stratford arriving at All Saints, on 6th April 2013. This station occupies the site of the NLR's Poplar station that closed with the line from Dalston Junction after heavy bomb damage in 1944. The Poplar to Bow section was reopened as part of the first two stages of the DLR in 1987. The section of the line through Hackney had reopened for heavy trains in 1979 linked to Stratford via the ex-GER branch from the latter to the site of Victoria Park station and is now part of London Overground. However, the section of the former Dalston to Poplar line between Victoria Park and Bow has been abandoned, leaving the district of Old Ford as the only place on the route not to have regained a passenger service.
