Railway Connections
First Capital Connect provide services on the electrified railway line which runs from Hertford North through Winchmore Hill station into London. This line connects further south to the tube system at Finsbury Park, Highbury and Islington, Old Street and Moorgate, where it terminates. After 22:00 trains run directly to King's Cross from Finsbury Park, rather than stations to Moorgate (the last train back leaves Moorgate at 21:50). (Timings from 2008 timetable). The nearest London Underground station is at Southgate which is on the Piccadilly Line.

Famous quotes containing the words railway and/or connections:
“Her personality had an architectonic quality; I think of her when I see some of the great London railway termini, especially St. Pancras, with its soot and turrets, and she overshadowed her own daughters, whom she did not understand—my mother, who liked things to be nice; my dotty aunt. But my mother had not the strength to put even some physical distance between them, let alone keep the old monster at emotional arm’s length.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“Growing up human is uniquely a matter of social relations rather than biology. What we learn from connections within the family takes the place of instincts that program the behavior of animals; which raises the question, how good are these connections?”
—Elizabeth Janeway (b. 1913)
