My 1971 Q stock photo shows the second platform out of use even then.


The second platform closed in 1928.
The track was removed soon after through services to Liverpool Street
ceased in 1966.

I can remember the track being used by through freight in "F" stock
days.


I am not old enough to remember 1928. I wonder how soon after 1966?
I must have just been there very briefly in the 1970s, seen the space
through a crowd and assumed that there was a track in the other
platform.
