The "ecs" route between Hornsey and Liverpool St. Do trains join the
Liverpool St. line at the junction just outside Hackney Central ? What
is the name of this junction perchance ?

The curve between Dalston Kingsland and London Fields is the Graham Road
Curve. The junction with the NLL is Navarino Road Junction. This curve was
put in when Broad Street was closed, to enable the peak Broad Street to
Willesden Junction/Watford Junction trains via Primrose Hill to be diverted
to run from Liverpool Street. Since that service was withdrawn the curve has
had no booked passenger workings, and AFAIK is no longer authorised for
passenger trains.

It was I think used by some ecs workings when the Anglia Crossrail
(Ipswich - Basingstoke via NLL) service ran, when some trains ran into
Liverpool Street, the ran ecs to Highbury & Islington to take up an Anglia
Crossrail working to Basingstoke.

As with the Canonbury Curve, I am not sure how much use the Graham Road
Curve is used these days.
