Looking north. The overbridge carries the ex-SER Tattenham Corner branch. The bus, on Route 166, is a standee single-decker of the SMS type. On these buses you paid your fare into a machine to operate a turnstile. They were universally unpopular, being regarded as cattle trucks, and only lasted a couple of years.
