History

The station was opened on 1 May 1885 by the Great Northern Railway (GNR). The station was completely reconstructed in 1959 for the increase from two to four tracks through the station. To celebrate the fact that legendary locomotive designer Nigel Gresley lived in Hadley Wood from 1923-29, Hadley Wood Rail User Group and The Gresley Society Trust funded a decorative plaque to adorn the station forecourt. This was officially unveiled by former local MP Michael Portillo in 2017.
