White chapel
I was at Whitechapel, today. It was my first visit for about a month.
The outer platforms - 1 eastbound and 4 westbound are hidden by hoarding for Crossrail work. Ihe inner platforms - 2 eastbound and 3 westbound - each have 25m "box junctions" at the bottom of the stairways. -- Walter Briscoe |

It will remain a 2 platform station after the Crossrail alterations, but it will be a single wide island platform after redevelopment, with the stairs and escalators where the centre tracks are. At some stage of the build progress the through lines will move to the new outer faces, and the hoardings will be switched to include the central area. Paul S |
