In St James Lane in Muswell Hill, the old viaduct to Alexander
Palace in still in place, reminding us of Muswell Hill's previous
railway connection.


In the 80s, as a Haringey Councillor, I supported a light railway of , a
then unique, design running partly on rails partly suspended, funded by
the EU and which would have run from Highgate (upper level) station
along, above the abandoned line through Muswell Hill, Crouch End,
Alexandra Palace to Finsbury Park.

The idea was abandoned as the environmentalists amongst us didn't want
to build on what had become the Parkland Walk
