Balham station opened in 1856 but has been rebuilt many times. This view from the end of the platform looks away from London. The train in the distance is veering right to cross Tooting Bec Common along the route followed by coastal trains and the Gatwick Express while the line straight ahead continues to Streatham Hill.
