Some reports state that since the station was located a considerable distance from any substantial settlement, 17 passengers used it a day, making it the quietest on the entire London Underground network. Although the building remained, the platform was removed by LT when they heard that, despite the formal closure, some trains were still dropping off passengers. The platform has now been reinstated, though the building is now a privately owned house. The Epping Ongar Railway now runs the line. The owner lives in the former station. Passengers on the heritage line can no longer alight at the station, but the train, on occasions stops outside the station to provide an experience of the original journey trains on the line would take. The line and surrounding area featured on a Michael Portillo's Great British Railway Journeys in 2012. The former station is visible from the bridge next to the converted station house. Road The local lanes are narrow and twisting and unsuited to vehicles larger than cars. In addition sections of Toot Hill Road (the road running through the hamlet) are designated as protected lanes. The road joins to Toot Hill opposite the Green Man pub and ends at a T-junction near Greensted. The road is surrounded by forestry, hedges and fields and is only suitable for one car at a time.
