Editing London Borough of Hackney (section)

==Transport==
Three [[London Overground]] lines serve Hackney: the [[North London Line]] crosses from west to east while the [[East London Line]] runs from Highbury & Islington and passes through [[Dalston Junction railway station|Dalston Junction]] and on south through Haggerston, Hoxton, Shoreditch towards destinations south of the River Thames, including Clapham Junction, Crystal Palace, Croydon, and New Cross. Local services on the [[Lea Valley Lines]] passed into [[London Overground]] on 31 May 2015. Trains originate at [[London Liverpool Street railway station|London Liverpool Street]] and head towards either [[Enfield Town railway station|Enfield Town]] (via [[Bush Hill Park railway station|Bush Hill Park]]), [[Cheshunt railway station|Cheshunt]] (via [[Turkey Street railway station|Turkey Street]]) or [[Chingford railway station|Chingford]] (via [[Clapton railway station|Clapton]]).

It is proposed that [[Crossrail 2]] will provide Hackney a new station at Dalston with the potential of the future 'eastern branch' with stops at Hackney Central and Hackney Wick.
