Theobalds Grove railway station

Submitted by Nigel Cox
Name Theobalds Grove railway station
Distance 0.13 miles from EN8 8JJ
Description Theobalds Grove is on the Southbury Loop of the railway between Liverpool Street and Cheshunt via Seven Sisters. It is unusual in so far as it has been shut and re-opened twice. Opened in 1891, it closed in 1909 because of competition from trams. It reopened in 1915 to transport munitions workers during the First World War, but closed again in 1919. It finally reopened to passenger traffic on the electrification of the route in 1960.
