Gordon Hill railway station serves Gordon Hill in the London Borough of Enfield, north London. It is 9 miles 69 chains (9.86 miles, 15.87 km) down the line from London King's Cross[2] on the Hertford Loop Line, in Travelcard Zone 5. It was opened on 4 April 1910. The station and the trains serving it are currently operated by Great Northern.
Three platforms are currently in use: Hertford-bound trains stop at platform 3 and London-bound trains stop at platform 2; platform 1 is a terminus platform used by certain trains to and from London, mainly during peak hours. A fourth platform face (opposite platform 3) is now disused - this was once used by North London Railway services to/from Broad Street.[3]
In autumn 2008, a new Shere FASTticket self-service ticket machine, accepting both cash and debit/credit cards was installed.
