Design
The platforms are high above street level with stairs and two lifts one serving westbound trains, and one serving eastbound trains and the Barking line. The North London Line has two platforms and the Barking line has a short terminal platform north of which are two separate through freight tracks which join the NLL just west of the station. Any through service between Clapham Junction and Barking would require new platforms at Gospel Oak. Oyster ticket barriers are in operation.
