A Richmond bound District Line service runs into the station under Gliddon Road. The train is made up of D78 stock, which entered service from 1980. The trains were refurbished between 2005 and 2008. The beautiful copper clock, made by the Self-Winding Clock Co - New York, combined with the steam age roof provides a pleasant contrast with the modern train. The company made clocks from 1886 until around 1970 and the London Underground was a customer.
