A Unique Station Indicator

I didn’t quite get the picture correct, as the display change was too quick for me.

A Unique Station Indicator

The sign is at Canonbury station and is between the two platforms; 2 and 3. Platform 3 is on the left and takes North London line trains towards Highbury and Islington station and the west, whereas Platform 2 takes East London line trains towards Dalston Junction station and the south.

When I got the camera out. it was showing trains to Clapham Junction station on both platforms. One has since changed to “Via Canada Water” to indicate the direction. I must get a better picture in the future.

I wonder how many places this happens regularly? But with a circular railway like the Overground, it will happen all the time, as half the trains at this station, go to Clapham Junction.

  1. Shame you can’t go to Balham – gateway to the south.

    • Ah! Peter Sellers!

      You could walk from Clapham High Street to Clapham North on the Northern line and then it’s three stops.

      Or there’s a 155 bus from the same station on the Overground.
