Camden Road railway station

Camden Road railway station is in the London Borough of Camden in North London. The station and all trains serving it are operated by London Overground. It is on the North London Line and in Travelcard Zone 2.

The station, at the corner of Royal College Street and Camden Road, was opened as "Camden Town" by the North London Railway on 8 December 1870. It was renamed "Camden Road" on 25 September 1950 to avoid confusion with the London Underground Northern line which is 450 metres to the southwest, however the accompanying 2008 photograph shows the original name still displayed on the parapet. It is one of the few railway stations in England in which there is a police station. The former Camden Road station (1868–1916) of the Midland Railway was about 500 metres east of this station.
