The existing ELL platform was a through platform until relatively
recently (if not used as such). I've noticed in the last couple of
years that the track continuing south has been taken up, but I don't
know when it happened. Maybe too much trouble to maintain.


As far as I can recall there hasn't been any through track there since
at least 1999 (when I moved to the area). But I could be wrong.


Went through NXG today at about midday and there were quite a few
workmen clearing the ground at the end of the ELL platform in
preparation to put the track back!


I have a vague rocollection, probably from the 1990s, of the track still
being in situ, but unusable because someone had planted a LUL type stop
light in the four foot.



To me, relatively recently means since 1975 ... in any case, it can't
be a major job to reopen the track.
