London Fields Station could be taken over from Greater Anglia by Transport for London as early as next year.

The potential takeover could see TfL extending its reach through Enfield and up to Hertfordshire, where trains from London Fields terminate.

Stoke Newington, Rectory Road and Clapton stations could also be added to the TfL map, according to Up The Line, the newsletter of Cambridge Heath and London Fields Rail Users.
