Millwall Docks Railway Station

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Milwall Docks railway station was a railway station located in Millwall, Isle of Dogs, London. It was located between South Dock and North Greenwich on the Millwall Extension Railway branch of the London and Blackwall Railway. It opened on December 18, 1871 and was situated on the corner of Glengall Road and East Ferry Road, serving the Millwall Docks. Traffic at the station was always light, and it closed to passenger service on May 3, 1926, along with the rest of the MER extension, though goods services continued until the docks closed in the 1970s. The Docklands area was heavily redeveloped in the 1980s, and most of the Docklands Light Railway between Island Gardens and South Quay reused the old MER route through the docks. Crossharbour DLR station is located very close to the site of Millwall Docks, although it is slightly to the south.
