I last visited here during a 2010 visit to a friend in this area but I can still remember details. My first impressions were a standard tube station, I knew the Underground lines and map very well during my visit but have since forgotten much, including the architectural patterns of the line, but believe this station is unique in having a patio afront where table and chairs make for nice socializing otherwise a spacious area where visitors like me can take a pause to make calls, insert SIM cards, juggle luggage, orient oneself, etc.
I recall a spacious wide set of platforms with narrower stairs up to streel level. A nearby connection to DLR is popular and important if the 2 lines don't plain meetup (don't remember). The usual Oyster turnstiles are here thus easy, reliable, fast entry/exit. I don't recall if there was an attended booth or ticketing machines, but do recall I saw no staff though many say CCTV replaces many of the usual security staff.
It's a very easy walk along Bow Rd which is spacious and well trafficked with plenty of amenities. Nice area with a nice station.

The London underground train is one of the best i have experienced from some of the several underground train stations in the big cities. The trains are really fast and takes you from A to B really fast. Although every line running on a track has several stations. It would be interesting if London could introduce some express trains that has lower stops just like in New York. Not on all the stations rather just the busiest lines of ubderground train. The hygiene level in the trains are also optimum, additionallly the train stations are also clean. Although one can always discuss the high prices of the London underground, which is the most expensivest and makes it kind of unattractive due to the high price. But nevertheless if you ride the train at the right time and know your way around, its kind of okay given the way it performs, which ia very good.

Helpful staff who helped me load my railcard to my oyster. It is a rather small station and at peak times it can get a bit crowded, as there is only one entrance/exit and only 4 gates for passing through.

Performs the role of a train station. Serves District Line and Hammersmith & City Line. Trains arrive and depart from here. Overall good coverage of staff and easy access to and from platforms.

A simple underground station which is severed by District and Hammersmith and City lines. There is no disabled access to the platforms only stairs. And the ticket hall area is very small with just 4 ticket barriers to use.

One of several London Underground Stations along the Mile End Road. Long gently sweeping wide platforms with cast iron pillars dating back to the early 20th Century. Old fashioned brick built Station with wooden shuttering and staircases. Well served by trains.

One of the litty-est stations in London. Great train access and they have stairs. Entrance requirement payment though
