New Barnet

The now fenced-off obsolete fast platforms at New Barnet, a London commuter station on the ECML where only the outer sides of the two island platforms are in use, seen here looking north on 4th March 2020. This station opened with the GNR's London Extension on 7th August 1850 as Barnet and was renamed New Barnet on 1st May 1884. On the far right, a class 717 unit from Welwyn Garden City to Moorgate is calling at the surviving outer edge of the up platform.
