A Bit of History
The station first opened its doors on July 22, 1872. Back then, it was already called Edmonton Green. But then, on July 1, 1883, its name was changed to Lower Edmonton.
Many years later, in 1992, the station went back to its original name. It became Edmonton Green again. This change happened to better match the name of the area it serves. It's also near where an older station, Lower Edmonton (low level) railway station, used to be.
