Blackhorse Road [LTPB]
A view down the escalator at the LUL Victoria Line station at Blackhorse Road, on 12th August 2019. This opened with the first stage of the line from Walthamstow Central to Highbury & Islington on 1st September 1968 and down which I travelled on that very first day. When opened, this was the only station on the new line that did not have a direct connection to a British Rail station. This was rectified when the separate 1894 station, across the road on the Gospel Oak to Barking line was closed and re-sited with new platforms on the west side of the road bridge, allowing direct interchange with the Victoria Line, on 14th December 1981.
