Hatfield

Hatfield sign

Hatfield is a station on the East Coast Main Line, to the east of the town it serves. Sadly the location is best known for the 2000 crash a mile or so south of the station.

The station building lies to the east of the line, on the opposite side from the bulk of modern Hatfield. A footbridge crosses the line at the south end of the station, giving a good view of the station as a whole:
