The Palace Gates Line was a short railway branch line in north London running from the main line at Seven Sisters Station in Tottenham to Palace Gates (Wood Green) Station in Wood Green.
The stations were:
- Seven Sisters - interchange station with main line
- West Green
- Noel Park and Wood Green
- Palace Gates
A connection to Bowes Park on the GNR Hertford Loop Line, which runs just north of the site of the terminus station, was made in 1929.
The Palace Gates line was closed to passengers on 7 January 1963. Goods services continued to run until 5 October 1964.
The 2015 proposed route for Crossrail 2, sees an option that would closely resemble the Palace Gates Line, running from Seven Sisters/South Tottenham railway station (double-ended station) through either Turnpike Lane and Alexandra Palace stations, or Wood Green Underground station, on its way to New Southgate railway station.
