Lea Valley Lines
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lea or Lee Valley Lines are three commuter lines and two branches in North East London, so named because they run along the valley of the River Lee (or Lea).
All lines start at London Liverpool Street and are operated by 'one'. The routes are:
- Via Tottenham Hale. This line also forms the lower part of the West Anglia Main Line to Cambridge.
- Via Seven Sisters. This line has a branch via Temple Mills at the southern end to Stratford, diverging just south of Seven Sisters. The line splits north of Edmonton Green with one short branch to Enfield Town and the Southbury Loop to Cheshunt, where it rejoins the Tottenham Hale line.
- To Chingford.
The lines are electrified at 25 kV AC overhead.
