Works At Hackney Central Station

Hackney Central station was one of the more elaborate stations on the old North London line, with a rather beautiful decorated station building on either side of the tracks.

The pictures show work on the building and the installation of a pair of lifts to cross the tracks.

For some time now, I’ve had the view that Hackney Downs and Central should be integrated, perhaps with a bus station nearby.It would help to revitalise Hackney and also allow passengers from Tottenham and Enfield to get to Stratford and Camden with a step-free change.
