Abandoned Victorian train station in one of the UK's best places to live is now a popular attraction
Plus, five abandoned train stations that are now incredible hotels with grand lobbies. NO TRACKS Abandoned Victorian train station in one of the UK's best places to live is now a popular attraction UNLESS you're a London local, most Brits won't know there's a four mile public walkway that used to be a bustling train route in the middle of the city. The Parkland Walk is the longest linear nature reserve in London, with half of it stretching across a disused train line. Advertisement 4 Parkland Walk used by millions is a disused train line Credit: Alamy 4 Crouch End station still has its two platforms Credit: Alamy Originally, the track was created in the 1860s as part of the railway line between Finsbury Park and Alexandra Palace. In its heyday, the line carried 60,000 passengers, but when numbers dwindled in 1954 Crouch End station closed its doors after 86 years. Just three years later and the line closed completely to commuters. The track remained open until 1964 for freight traffic. Advertisement Years later in 1972, the track was taken up and the original plans were for it to be turned into a road. These were later withdrawn and in the early 80s, the Parkland Walk was created. Along the walk are bridges, tunnels and of course platforms that are now used by millions including walkers, joggers, dog-walkers and cyclists. Also along the walk is the abandoned Crouch End station which despite remaining closed, still stands. Advertisement Walkers have described it as being a "ghost station" as it stands frozen in time with both platforms still in place - but with there are no trains, tracks or ticket office. Very near the old Crouch End station is piece of public art that looks like it's crawling out of the wall.

Someone who used the Parkland Walk described it as a "peaceful haven away from the hustle and bustle of Crouch End/Parkland Walk has become my favourite place to go running." Another said it is a "great retreat" to walk and enjoy nature. You don't have to do the whole walk as there are lots of entry and exit points along the way - including some at Crouch End which in 2023, was declared the best place to live in London by The Times. Advertisement The judges said that it's grand Victorian houses have been snapped up by celebrities and the "lively North London suburb" has a market town feel. People can explore the walk by joining entrances at Oxford Road near Finsbury Park station, Blythwood Road and Ella Road in Crouch Hill and Holmesdale Road in Highgate. Here are five abandoned train stations that are now beautiful hotels with bedroom carriages and grand lobbies. And this creepy UK train line called 'Necropolis' used to only carried dead passengers – ferrying hundreds of corpses a day. Advertisement

‘Tekkonkinkreet' Blu-Ray Review: A Remarkable Anime Unlike Any Other
One of the more fascinating anime movies out there is Tekkonkinkreet, and this latest Blu-ray release certainly does it justice. Released back in 2006, it deals with two orphans called Black and White as they patrol Treasure Town and protect it from thugs. While Black is more streetwise, White is far more innocent and is constantly daydreaming. Both orphans are not to be underestimated, however, as when the yakuza rolls into Treasure Town, they have their work cut out for them as the two orphans cause all manner of havoc. Starting out as a manga, Tekkonkinkreet hits you hard with its unique character designs and overall art style. Not to mention the make-up of Treasure Town. In many ways, Treasure Town's visuals are a character in and of itself. Taking visual cues from Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, to name a few. It also reminds me of the painstaking world-building from The Wings of Honneamise, as Treasure Town feels like a real lived in place. Like with all good coming-of-age tales, Tekkonkinkreet deals with how Black and White survive, and how Treasure Town is part of their demeanor. 'Tekkonkinkreet' is a unique anime. Tekkonkinkreet was also one of the first major cinematic works Studio 4°C, who are often linked to the Animatrix but whose credits are far more interesting than that. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder From Memories to Spriggan, not to mention Macross 7's gorgeous opening, Studio 4°C has always been an interesting and quirky studio, which fits Tekkonkinkreet's vibe perfectly. As for this release, it's very well done. Apart from the Blu-ray and DVD versions of the movie, you also get a 28-page artbook showing different elements from the movie from various artists. The extras aren't exactly that abundant, but the visual and and audio quality more than make up for that. Overall, Tekkonkinkreet is one of those anime movies that few have heard of and even fewer have really seen. That is definitely something that should be addressed, and this collector's edition does a very good job of doing that, as well as giving two orphans another home. Tekkonkinkreet Collector's Edition is currently available from AllTheAnime for £29.16. Disclosure: AllTheAnime sent me this Blu-ray for the purposes of this review.
