Default Two Heads Are Better Than One: Where Did Graham Bond Die?

It is a long shot, but it just might work....
The musician Graham Bond died on the tracks at Finsbury Park Station
on the 8th May 1974 at the age of 36.
I was wondering - which platform did he fall from?

Thank you!
I'm not morbid... just curious. I thought it would be the Overground.

There wasn't any "Overground" in 1974.

And yet the station now known as Alexandra Palace was colloquially known
as "`wood Green Overground" at that time.

Raised as I was in Herne Hill, I have long since ceased to be surprised at how stupid North Londoners can be.
