I wonder why these are there? The Gospel Oak to Barking line is diesel-operated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.140.57.113 (talk) 13:27, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

See the Lea Valley Lines article. There is a limited service from Liverpool Street to Enfield Town via Stratford, using a short section of the Gospel Oak to Barking line. Currently this service seems to comprise only one train per week on Saturday mornings, in one direction only: Liverpool St (05:28) - Stratford (05:37) - Seven Sisters (05:50), then all stations to Enfield Town (06:04). Between Stratford and Seven Sisters, the train passes non-stop through South Tottenham. Presumably there was once a more frequent service on this route, and the line is now maintained only as a Parliamentary service. Thunderfish (talk) 20:34, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
