History
The station opened on 12 May 1980 by British Rail as part of the Crosstown Linkline service.[1] The area had been served by Victoria Park railway station, a short distance to the west, on the Broad Street–Poplar branch of the North London Railway from 1856 to 1943.
As part of the programme to introduce four-car trains on the London Overground network, the North London Line between Шаблон:Stnlnk and Шаблон:Stl closed in February 2010; reopening 1 June 2010. This was to enable the installation of a new signalling system and the extension of 30 platforms. Engineering work continued to June 2011, during which reduced services operated and Sunday services were suspended.[2]
The typical service at the station is 4 trains per hour westbound to Шаблон:Stl via Шаблон:Rws, Шаблон:Rws, Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws, 2 trains per hour to Clapham Junction, and 6 trains per hour eastbound to Шаблон:Stl.[3]
Until 9 December 2006, when the line from Stratford to Шаблон:Rws was closed to be converted to a Docklands Light Railway line, the eastbound service ran to North Woolwich calling at Stratford, Шаблон:Rws, Шаблон:Rws, Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws.
Hackney Wick station was a key transport point for the 2012 Summer Olympics as it is situated Шаблон:Cvt from the western periphery of the Olympic Park. However, due to potential overcrowding, TfL announced that westbound trains would not stop at this station for the duration of the Games.[4]
Hackney Wick is one of four stations located around the park, along with Stratford, Stratford International and Pudding Mill Lane.
At 00:54 on 21 March 2019, two men were fatally electrocuted after climbing a wagon of a freight train stopped adjacent to Hackney Wick station.[5][6] A coroner's report found that the men used a hole in a chain link fence to access the railway, and that fences in the area of the incident had not been inspected since 2016. The report also identified a number of failures in Network Rail's inspection regime.[7][8]
