An Orpington to Victoria train is on its way into the station. The right fork of this rail junction goes towards Sutton or Wimbledon and is used by First Capital Connect trains. The bridge ahead is the one you see at street level in http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/407202 The mast at top dead centre of shot is the TV mast at Crystal Palace. Graffiti "artists" have been busy -- I'll bet they didn't do a Health and Safety Risk Assessment before painting started. Not least amongst the hazards would have been a 750 volt live rail just inches from where their feet were.
