The view is west to the City of London. A journey to Crystal Palace had taken an unexpected turn. Access to the subterranean Overground at Whitechapel Image being closed, passengers – sorry, customers – were recommended to board a rail replacement bus. It was a most interesting ride via Tower Bridge and Wandsworth turning south to call at the old East London line stations, Rotherhithe and Surrey Quays and the newer Canada Water before leaving us to make our own way from New Cross Gate. Every inch of the journey called for a return visit with a camera. Photo number 7779737.
