Peckham Rye is a station with two separate sides. Initially it was served by the London, Chatham & Dover Railway from December 1865 - tracks to the right. The London, Brighton & South Coast Railway connected to the station in August of 1866 - tracks on the left. Even today, knowing which side of the station you need for your journey is essential. London Overground and Southern on the Left, Southeastern and Thames link on the right. The arches carrying the tracks and platforms with the enclosed area between have become a home for light industry and small business.
