South end of South Croydon station
A "4-VEP" unit no. 3515 passes through South Croydon station as track maintenance contractors work on the bridge over Croham Road. The junction seen here marks a principal split in the Southern main line, the tracks to the left being the Uckfield and East Grinstead branches, and the other lines going straight on to Redhill and Brighton.

Looking down the line from South Croydon station
South Croydon station was originally a terminus, next to the Brighton Line but without any platforms on it. It was at the end of a one-mile extension of the local lines from London to New Croydon station, opened by the London Brighton & South Coast Railway in 1865. The aim was to provide more space for reversing local trains than could be afforded at the busy New Croydon station. In 1894 the railway obtained authority to extend the local line from South Croydon to Coulsdon, parallel to the existing main line. The station was rebuilt as a through station with platforms on all the lines prior to the opening of the new line in November 1899. This photograph looks southwards across the bridge crossing Croham Road. The fast lines are on the extreme right.
