Geography

Crews Hill is a railway station in Enfield in the postcode EN2; it is on an access road just off Cattlegate Road and is very close to the M25. A subway links the down (northbound) platform with the entrance on the up (southbound) side.

Services

The service runs to Moorgate on weekdays until about 10:00 pm, and into London King's Cross after 10:00 pm Mondays to Fridays and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. Normally the service uses Class 313 EMUs, as these are the only units cleared to Moorgate, although on weekends sometimes Class 317 EMUs are used instead.

The typical off-peak service is three trains per hour to Moorgate, and two trains per hour to Hertford North, with one per hour to Letchworth Garden City via Stevenage. In the evenings, some trains skip the station.

The station is completely unstaffed and there is no ticket machine available. As a result, the station is not a penalty fares station.[2]

Since 2 January 2010, Oyster cards can be used at the station.
