Camden Road: View north over the rooftops of Camden Town from class 378 unit, London Overground to Stratford, approaching Camden Road station, at 11.47 on Monday, 17th February 2025. I really wanted to go west from Gospel Oak to West Brompton after changing from Crouch Hill but the lift to the westbound platform at Gospel Oak was out of order so, to avoid a very steep climb, I went three stops first in the wrong direction to be able to change at the island platform at Caledonian Road & Barnsbury and then come back up again on a Clapham Junction train.
