Not just the Parkland Walk, part (including through Harringay) of the Gospel Oak - Barking line.  Cecil Parkinson and his Department of Transport's bright idea. And if we're addressing hard-to-believe local development, before that there was a plan to build (Council?) flats on what is now Railway Fields.

I thought the plan for the parkland walk once was a light railway

There have been proposals for restoring a rail-based link to the Palace or Muswell Hill, particularly by The Muswell Hill Metro Group (formed in 1989...)

The number of buildings now on the alignment, particularly the school and residential home around the Woodside Avenue/Muswell Hill Rd/Cranley Gardens junction (where Cranley Gardens Station was) makes them non-starters, I think.

Crossrail will go to Ally Pally from Turnpike Lane, but not before 2030. (Underground not surface.)

@pavlos/FPR.

Flats first (recorded on a property search in1980 I think): putative road later, late 80s.

Gawd, been here forever...

Expect the line to be stuffed for this three weeks, especially eastbound, as the tube east of Seven Sisters is down for track work at Walthamstow.  So a lot of E17-ers are picking up the line at Blackhorse Road, to SoTo then quick jog to Seven Sisters tube.  The replacement buses seem to be doing well, loads of them coming through the area, but I don't know how long the road journey may take - hopefully abbreviated by clear bus lanes.
