<p>Well, rather too many of us for any Overground staff to try and play god at! Excellent turn out by the Green Lanes gallery!</p>
<p>Mayflower looked top notch and was working hard.</p>
<p>Still from video:</p>

<p>Beware trying to stand on the platform as the Overground bods can be rather jobsworthy in their approach. For a “wide angle” view, standing down in McDonald’s car park would work.</p>
<p>One could also stand on the Parkland Walk viaduct over Stapleton Hall Road, as you get a great view of trains heading west in the cutting below.</p>
<p>EDIT: Although having said that, it won’t be quite the same with the wires up.</p>

<p>It is quite likely that 61306 <em>Mayflower</em> will be attached at the rear of the empty stock to Southend, which will be hauled by a West Coast Railway Co diesel, probably a class 47 which will be on the back of the train when <em>Mayflower</em> hauls it back up the line later. The return working will lose <em>Mayflower</em> in west London and the WCRC diesel will be in sole charge from there back to Southend.</p>

<p>Indeed. For early risers, the stock will be coming from West Coast's Railway's depot passing HGY at 05:12, might not be steam but those coaches won't pull themselves so could be a lumpy old diesel. The stock passes through again at 21:50 on its way back to Southend, so rail fanatics who might fancy a walk between pints at the Salisbury on a gamble of steam:lumpy D might choose that option. ;)…</p>

<p>Harringay Park Junction is the link that joins the eastbound GOBLIN with the northbound East Coast Main Line just south of Harringay station. Basically it allows trains to switch between the two routes. If you go onto google maps, you can spot it.</p>

<p>Do you know what station 'Harringay Park Jn' is? And where it is?</p>
<p>It seems like it might just be the Harringay Green Lanes station on Green Lanes right?</p>
