When the Victoria line was being planned, this station was going to be the end of the line instead of Walthamstow Central station.[2] A decision was made in 1961 which meant that this did not happen.[2] If this station had become the end of the Victoria line, the building would have been on the surface next to the British Railways station.[2]
