Canonbury Junction
 

Does anybody know if there is still track on the Canonbury Curve (off the
NLL towards Drayton Park)?. When I had a ride past there a couple of
months ago to see if the track was still there, I saw tracks and assumed
the link was still open.

However, I've just seen a signalling notice stating that Canonbury West,
Canonbury East and Dalston Junctions will completely removed from 1st June
2010.

Google Earth (June 27 2010) shows all the tracks and crossover still in
place. However there appears to possibly be two buffers in place at the
ELL end of the curve. I suppose that track from Drayton Park could still
be there as a siding, but with the point work to the ELL line removed.

Ignore that post, I seem to have got the junctions mixed up and I'm
looking at the wrong place!

The curve was removed temporarily and reinstated since that date. I
suspect the notice you saw related to the beginning of the works.

Thanks for that.
I was getting a little tired by the time I was looking at it :-)
