Noel Park And Wood Green Railway Station
The station was opened by the Great Eastern Railway as Green Lanes on 1 January 1878, as the temporary terminus of the line – which was extended to Palace Gates (Wood Green) station on 7 October 1878.
In 1884, as work began on the large Noel Park housing estate nearby, the station name was changed to Green Lanes & Noel Park; it was given its final name in 1902.
Competing as it did with other nearby railway lines and the London Underground's Piccadilly line, the Palace Gates line became unprofitable; the line and the station were closed for passenger services on 7 January 1963, and for freight on 7 December 1964. Following closure, the embankment that housed the station and the bridge over The Broadway was removed. Nothing is left of the station.
