Dist:0.1km<br/>The morning Southampton to Ripple Lane, Barking container train is about to pass Caledonian Road and Barnsbury station. The driver has just opened the power controller; the result a nice exhaust of black smoke. Out of sight on the right behind the platform is Holloway prison.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Looking west from the footbridge. The freight lines are on the right, and at this point merge into a single track to pass behind the station platform.

Dist:0.1km<br/>The pedestrian ramp up from Caledonian Road. Considerable effort has been put into making this access attractive to passengers with fresh paint, new lighting and floral baskets.

Dist:0.1km<br/>The North London line crossing the Caledonian Road. The bridge retains the traditional Ferodo advert which was a feature of many bridges.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Looking west from the footbridge, we see the island platform now used by all North London trains, the left side for westbound trains and the right side for eastbound trains. The track on the extreme left, which was formerly used by westbound passenger trains, is now used by freight trains only, and the platform alongside it is now just used for access.

Dist:0.2km<br/>The railway bridge carries the North London Line. Caledonian Road and Barnsbury Station is near here, on the left. Click here for links on Ferodo Bridges -- this is not the only example. http://www.flickr.com/groups/ferodo/pool/ http://www.freston.net/stuff/ip-ferodo.html

Dist:0.2km<br/>On the North London Line. Station improvements have been made here since the line was taken over by Transport for London. This line also has heavy freight traffic as this is a convenient link between most of the main lines into London north of the Thames. The freight tracks can be seen to the right, with overhead electric wires. On this section the North London Line still uses a third rail for current collection.

Dist:0.2km<br/>View eastward, towards Dalston Junction, Broad Street and East London: ex-North London line, from Camden Road, Willesden, Richmond etc., on the busy middle section of this key inter-regional artery, with the passenger service (from Broad Street) provided only on the No. 2 (south side) lines.
