I believe the 'Khyber Pass' can bee seen on the track layout diagram (attached).

Has anyone got any idea what the 'Rowntrees' sidings were used for 'Before' Rowentrees warehouse opened. I'm thinking they may have been used as a drop off sidings for wagons for Wood Green, IE, coal, sand, General stuff. Before Rowentrees warehouse, the area was only 'Allotments'. Thanks for any help.

Re: Wood Green Tunnel sidings.
The route of the 'Khyber Pass' on the Down side of the running lines beyond Wood Green could still be seen from passing trains during the late 1960s and into the early 1970s except that the track had been lifted throughout but the ballast still remained through the 'Khyber Pass' from a faded memory.
Original start date of 2010 on the LNER forum and previously posted 4500+ posts.
