Emerson Park
321303 heading away from the camera as it departs for Romford from Emerson Park on 24th October 2019. The station was formerly called Emerson Park Halt and is the only stop on the short single track line between Upminster and Romford in Essex, and an isolated part of the London Overground network since May 2015. In the 1970s there were proposals to convert this line, first to a guided busway and then to a road for all traffic (that would have required serious widening). Thankfully both these mad schemes were confined to the planners' wastepaper bins before the ink was dry on the proposal documents.
