Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Bridge over Crescent Road. Originally part of the Edgware, Highgate and London Railway, the Northern Line routes through to Mill Hill East from Finchley Central. The line, which originally routed through to Edgware, was always single track but the bridges, as clearly visible from the extended piers here, were constructed wide enough to permit double tracks for future expansion. Unfortunately, the Edgware line fell upon bad times as road transport grew and Underground services were proposed for Edgware in the 1930s. The branch was closed for electrification and transfer to the Northern line in 1939 and reopened to Mill Hill East in 1941. The rest of the line to Edgware never reopened to passenger traffic and closed to but freight services in 1964. A 1995 stock Northern Line train crosses the bridge en-route to Mill Hill East. |
