"Transport bosses were today left red-faced after the name of a major station

was mis-spelled on several prominent signs.

The embarrassing blunder at Walthamstow Central saw the north-east London

rail hub renamed "Waltamstow Central" as part of renovation work undertaken to
mark the London Overground's takeover of a main line route through the
station."


Up until maybe the 80s it was called Woltam Staah. I believe these days its
now know as Al Waltamta Alhuhar Akbah.
