What is this passing over Shoreditch High Street? A former railway
viaduct?

The link: http://bit.ly/dlgmD3

No longer 'former'. It was refurbished a few years ago as part of the
advance works, and the reopened East London Line uses it.

The 'Multimap' aerial view shows it refurbished, and the adjacent
viaducts ready for track laying...

When was the original line closed, and what was it called?

1986 - not sure what the line was publicly known as, but services
ran into the now closed Broad St station. Was it just known as the
North London Line?

Broad St was *the* North London Railway terminus.
