Hello all,
Following the announcement today that VTEC are to cease all operations and to see the new Thameslink services on the ECML, I’m thinking of doing some filming at a station (or two) along the ECML within London, similar to what I did last year on the Thameslink Core. Do you guys have any recommendations on what’s the best station within London to spot from? I was thinking either Finusbury Park or Hornsey but would like some recommendations if there is anywhere else.
I will most likely be using an Oyster card so ideally somewhere with no barriers or has Oyster readers on the platform/bridge before the barriers where I can tap out and then tap in again when I’m ready to leave would be good, similar to what’s at Harrow and Wealdstone. Otherwise is it worth getting a travelcard?
Thanks in advance!
