White Hart Lane station in Tottenham was originally a station on the Stoke Newington & Edmonton Railway: it opened on 22 July 1872. It is currently operated by Abellio Greater Anglia and is in Travelcard Zone 3, on the Seven Sisters branch of the Lea Valley Lines.

Match day special train services

The station is heavily used on football match days for local team Tottenham Hotspur, and there is a match day special timetable for this station with some trains arriving and departing every few minutes from the station. On match days, three hours before kick-off, trains to/from Hertford East, Bishops Stortford, Broxbourne, Harlow Town, Stansted Airport and Cambridge call at White Hart Lane. This also continues for two hours after the match, with trains to/from Liverpool Street starting and terminating here as well.

The railway station is the nearest to the stadium as it is about three minutes walk away from Tottenham Hotspur's ground, White Hart Lane. In March 2014 part of the station was damaged by a small fire which took place at the station either on the 16/17 March.

The station is also near to Bruce Castle Park, at which the annual Tottenham Carnival is held, usually in mid-June.

On 31 May 2015 the Liverpool Street-Enfield Town/Cheshunt services, will transfer from Abellio Greater Anglia to become part of the London Overground network.^[2][3]
