This hardly looks like the approach to a railway terminus, but in fact this suburban street was built on the trackbed to the original Epsom Downs station, when the branch from Sutton was cut back in 1989 - no doubt a lucrative development opportunity for British Rail at the time. Traffic to the new Epsom Downs station now has to pass this way.
