Putney station opened when the Nine Elms to Richmond line came into service on 27th July 1846. It was rebuilt between 1885 and 1886 when the track was quadrupled as far as Barnes. This view looks up the line with the two up platforms on the left and the two down platforms on the right. The bridge just ahead carries Oxford Road over the line and beyond can just be seen the District line bridge - see https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2336753 The next station in this direction is Wandsworth Town.
