A view along the platform at Chesham station, facing the buffer stop. The dark blue pole in the foreground supports a mirror that was used by drivers to see the doors of four car trains, but is redundant now that all trains on this line are formed of eight cars. The water tower behind it on the left has been redundant for much longer, as it existed to supply water to steam locomotives. In front of it, some small trees have taken over the trackbed in the former bay platform.
