The Damage To The Overground

Judging by these pictures I took, the train crash on the 15th caused quite a bit of damage.

You do wonder what would have happened if the container had fallen into the park below during the day. Luckily the wall held it on the track. But it did happen at three in the morning.

Let’s hope this accident is not a foretaste of the future, when a lot more freight trains from London Gateway will be using the North London Line.

There doesn’t seem to be any news about when the line will reopen.
