  bow road railway station was located in london in the united kingdom. it was situated slightly west of the former bow station on the north london railway. the nearest open station is bow church dlr station on the docklands light railway. ==bow and bromley station== the line that this station was located on was opened by the london and blackwell extension railway on 2 april 1849. this served the station, then called bow and bromley and located north of bow road itself on a viaduct. the service would, if there was a connecting service, run onto an exchange station called victoria park and bow railway station, otherwise it terminated at bow and bromley. the eastern counties were not particularly co-operative in stopping many of their services at victoria park and bow and in the march 1850 bradshaw's guide the ecr services at victoria park and bow station were - 6:07&nbsp;a.m. to norwich on weekdays and the 1:37&nbsp;p.m. to norwich on sundays. in the up direction there were no weekday services at all whilst two services called on sunday at 1:05 and 9:28&nbsp;p.m. the original intention had been to build a junction with the eastern counties railway main line between bishopsgate and stratford railway stations and run through trains from fenchurch street railway station.at this date the only other intermediate station existing between between bishopsgate and stratford was mile end railway station (london). relationships between the two railway companies were poor at this time so the junction was not built and services on the newly opened branch lasted until 26 september 1850 when the original station was closed. the relationships finally improved and in 1854 the junction between the two lines was built. by the 1860s the railways in east anglia were in financial trouble, and most were leased to the ecr; they wished to amalgamate formally, but could not obtain government agreement for this until 1
