The platforms at Gipsy Hill were recently extended to take 10-carriage trains rather than the previous 8, as can clearly be seen on the opposite platform: this is taken on the London-bound, up, platform at the point where the extension begins, marked by the narrowness of the platform and, on the extreme left, the driver's information screens positioned where the front of an 8-car train used to be. Silhouetted against the mist in the distance is the Victorian bulk of Salter's Hill School.
