Norbiton station
The London & South Western Railway built its line to Southampton further south through Surbiton because of opposition by Kingston Corporation, worried about the effect on the coaching trade. This opposition continued even during the laying of the line from Twickenham via Teddington, although this line did reach a terminus in Kingston in 1863. In 1869 the line was extended through Norbiton to connect to the main line southwest of the present New Malden station. When Queen Victoria visited distinguished residents in the Coombe Hill area, the royal train stopped at Norbiton, as it was the only station in the area where the platform is at ground level.
This is the view along the up platform in the direction of New Malden and Waterloo.

Norbiton railway station underpass
The blue and red lines remain from Network SouthEast days. The orange line was added when South West Trains took over; they did the same thing on trains before they were entirely re-liveried.

Coombe Road, Norbiton
From the station car park. The block opposite is about to be renovated but will probably look exactly the same from the outside (I can report back when it's done).
