What does this page add to the information about Walford East on the EastEnders page? And what more can be said? This is a potential VFD. Mtiedemann 01:03, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)


I've deleted the LUL infoboxes from this page (and will delete the links from the station links on the District Line page too). It's just confusing to use the stats from Bromley-by-Bow, and it needs to be made very clear that this is not a real station. --Mpk 13:25, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Original research

Thought I'd post some of the information here that was deleted from the article, so if anyone can source it, it can be readded:

Recently, 1995 stock trains from the Northern Line could be heard from the station despite it being on the District Line.

In an episode in September 2006, in a long scene where Billy Mitchell is returning to Walford, the train he was on had to stop at a red light. The train stopped using a sound sequence taken from a 1996 stock train (the deceleration sound). The train was there for ten minutes because the train in front had trouble aboard involving a "little brat". The train then started up again unrealistically as it didn't accelerate and started after a series of quick flashes. The train used for the scene was a refurbished D-stock train. There are also no tunnels near Walford East station if it existed.
