Leyton Midland Road is a London Overground station in Leyton of the London Borough of Waltham Forest. It is on the Gospel Oak to Barking Line, between and stations and is in Travelcard Zone 3.
==History==
The station opened on 9 July 1894 as part of the Tottenham & Forest Gate Railway and was originally just called "Leyton".〔(Barking to Gospel Oak Rail User Group - A Short History of the Line )〕
On 17 August 1915, three explosive bombs from the German Zeppelin L.10 landed on or near the station, destroying the ticket office, a billiard hall in the arches under the platform and damaging several houses nearby; four people were killed.〔London 1914-17: The Zeppelin Menace, Ian Castle, Christa Hook, Osprey Publishing 2008, p.30〕
The station was renamed on 1 May 1949 to its current name.〔〔 The goods yard was just beyond the station, and closed on 6 May 1968.〔 Like Leytonstone High Road and Wanstead Park, the booking office here was built into the viaduct arch, but by the 1980s all the old buildings had gone, although the Greater London Council built a new booking office on Midland Road itself.〔 A few years later that was closed, as like other stations it became unstaffed, and it too was demolished.〔
