Zone 3/4 Station

Lines Served

GN Electrics Line South
to Moorgate or King's Cross
<--- Alexandra Palace <--- Bowes Park Station ---> Palmers Green ---> North
to Hertford

Bowes Park serves the residential area with the same name. However it is completely outclassed by Bounds Green station on the Piccadilly Line - which is only a couple of hundred metres away, and also serves King's Cross and Finsbury Park, at a much higher frequency (every few minutes, whereas service from Bowes Park is every 30 minutes outside the peaks).

This is a useful station if the Piccadilly line is having trouble - otherwise it's much better to use either Bounds Green or Alexandra Palace (one station down on the same line as Bowes Park) which has a much higher frequency.

Exits

Via a footbridge which links the Myddleton Road area to Herbert Road on the Bounds Green side.

Where To Alight

About halfway along the train.

Facilities

None - this is a very small station.
