Next stop Southfields. Behind the camera the line emerges from a tunnel which leads towards East Putney. The line was constructed by the London & South Western Railway in the 1880's, but has long been operated as part of the London Underground system. David Howard's shot (which uses more zoom) was taken from a similar position, but in November - so that houses in Sutherland Grove are visible on the right of his picture: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1079272
