Manor Park is a short walk from Woodgrange Park on the Gospel Oak to Barking line, and an out-of-station interchange is available one stop to the west, at Forest Gate, for Wanstead Park.[4]

History

The station was opened in 1873 by the Great Eastern Railway.

In 2015, services run by Greater Anglia were intermediately rebranded to TfL Rail, as part of the development of the Elizabeth Line. Significant upgrades were made to the station, including the installation of 3 lifts, a new bridge, staircases, and signage.

Services

Train services call at Manor Park as part of the Shenfield – Paddington stopping service, operated as part of the Elizabeth line. By May 2023 the Elizabeth line service will be extended beyond Paddington to Reading and Heathrow Airport.

The typical off-peak service is eight trains per hour in each direction between Paddington and Shenfield (on Sundays four of the eight trains terminate instead at Gidea Park).

Operator	Route	Fleet	Frequency
Elizabeth line	Paddington – Bond Street – Tottenham Court Road – Farringdon – Liverpool Street – Whitechapel – Stratford – Maryland – Forest Gate – Manor Park – Ilford – Seven Kings – Goodmayes – Chadwell Heath – Romford – Gidea Park – Harold Wood – Brentwood – Shenfield	Class 315, Class 345	8 per hour

In normal operation all services use platforms 1 and 2. Platforms 3 and 4, on the main line, are generally only operational during engineering works that affect the electric line. An additional short, unnumbered platform face is present to the south of platform 1 but is not in operation; the track behind it is used as a passing loop for freight traffic.[5]

Future development

New Class 345 trains began entering service in 2017. Platforms 1 and 2 are only 168 metres (184 yd) and 185 metres (202 yd) long respectively and cannot physically be extended to accommodate the new trains, which will be over 200 metres (220 yd) in length, so selective door operation will be used. The freight loop around platform 1 is due to be removed and replaced by a new loop line further down-line, west of Chadwell Heath.^{[citation needed]}

Due to the narrow platforms and the layout of the station, fitting lifts for disabled access is difficult, requiring the walkways to be rebuilt and closing parts of the station for several months. The station will receive new ticket machines and gates, an accessible toilet and new retail space.[6]

Connections

London Buses routes 101, 304, 474 and W19 serve the station.[7]
