North Weald

North Weald station, Epping Ongar Railway, looking towards Ongar with the now fully-restored footbridge (that came from South Woodford station), on 20th February 2020. The last time I visited this railway, in 2016, the bridge was in two pieces and people had to cross the line by means of the level crossing. This has been retained for people with reduced mobility. In LUL Central Line days, which lasted from 1957 to 1994, this was the only level crossing on the London Underground, here well above ground(!) in the depths of the Essex countryside.
