Deptford Road Junction: first day of reopening

Unit 378152 on a journey from New Cross Gate to Shoreditch takes the new single track flyover crossing the route of the projected Peckham link line. The front of the train bears a poster with the London Overground logo and "first passenger train - April 2010". The lack of a precise date on the poster reflects the fact that the exact opening date was only known a few days in advance.

East London Line reopening :: TQ3575

27 April 2010 was the first day of advertised public service on the former East London Line following its refurbishment as part of the London Overground network. Technically the main difference was conversion from the London Underground's "fourth rail" power system to standard Network Rail "third rail". For the passenger it would mean newer and more frequent trains.
