Looking south along the platforms of Redhill Station from the footbridge north of the station. On the far right is part of the new Platform 0, opened on 2 January 2018, built to improve capacity at the station because of the conflict between through trains on the one hand and Gatwick to Guildford/Reading trains (which reverse at Redhill) and Southern shuttle trains to Reigate on the other hand, both of which can now use Platform 1 (now terminating, as can be seen from the buffer stops), rather than blocking one of the through lines. On the left of the photo, 377 612 stands at Platform 3 at the rear of a London Victoria to Brighton service while in the centre of the photo, 377 604 heads a Southern Brighton to London Victoria service just departed from Platform 2. In the far distance, a Class 700 Thameslink train can be seen waiting to come into the station.
