You appear to be confusing history with theme parks.

It will no doubt disappoint you to hear the following. I don't know
about the station itself, but according to TfL's ELLX video[1], the
Shoreditch "branch" from the extended ELL, which lies in cutting, will
be filled in. (Presumably this is so they can build offices or
something on it.) This will all but preclude any future use of the
station, or the connection to the GEML.


Not half as much as it would have disappointed to hear that they were
planning to put a thin-walled concrete tunnel over the line and infill
with earth so that they could build above it...
