The Site Of Renwick Road Station

On the way back from Dagenham Dock station, I passed the proposed site of Renwick Road station.

This Google Map shows the area.

The station will be on the western site of the bridge that takes Renwick Road over the railway.

These pictures were taken from the train.

There’s plenty of space for a station, but I do think it could be exceeedingly bleak on a cold day.

Dagenham Dock Railway Station

After visiting the Land Of The Giants, my EL2 bus went through the industrial area to Dagenham Dock station.

A few points.

  • The area is rather bleak.
  • From the station I caught one of the two trains per hour into London.
  • Dagenham Dock and the other two stations of Renwick Road and Barking Riverside will need to have a decent bus connection.

It certainly needs substantial improvement.
