This station exit at Shadwell, London Overground, replaced the original 1876 building on Watney Street, behind and to the right of the the camera, in 1983. That stood derelict until demolished in 2010. Passengers could once enter or leave here as well as the main entrance/exit on Cable Street but this side is now exit only and Cable Street entrance only. Although rail diagrams show this as an interchange with the DLR, the two are not linked, changing passengers having to leave one station, cross the street, and enter the other. Despite its name, this section of the Overground is Underground, part of the former LU East London Line. Seen here at 09.14 on Saturday, 4th January 2025.
