Any other stations which have a bit of land that could be put to such
good use?


Well, it's already been done, but the Gunnersbury Triangle (opposite Chiswick
Park Station) is a wonderful nature reserve, occupying former railway land.
Well worth a visit in better weather:

There's a long, thin nature reserve alongside the east side of the Great
Northern south of Seven Sisters Road, which i assume is former railway
land. I'm not sure what it's called, but you can see it he

It connects to a larger, squarer area between the line and Highbury
stadium, which i don't know is ex-railway.
