Wanstead Park Station -2

Street-level photo taken from Woodgrange Road in May 1967, before the station was rationalized and the booking hall replaced. The wooden structures were painted BR green and cream. It is now an unstaffed station, with a set of steel stairs to platform level. None of the original structures exist.

A photograph of the Station in 2008, which replaced the old shops in the Black & White Photo.
The DLR station is currently being built on the low level section of the station and should open in 2012.
Note West Ham Station should not be confused with West Ham Central Station which was on a totally differant railway system.
West Ham Central was a part of the Beckton Railway which went to the Beckton Gas works. The station would have been in the area of what is now the Beckton District Park
