Train at West Humble
I'm up on the road bridge in the same place as Ben Brooksbank must have been 53 years ago when he took this one.

Surprisingly few changes. For the convenience of passengers the footbridge has lost its roof, so you get wet in the rain, and smaller, harder to read from the train nameboards have replaced the big old ones.
Cameras and lights of course, but the main difference, and it's one I have often noticed when comparing with old pictures, is how leafier things are today.
Roads, railways and canals all seemed to have less foliage around back then.

Box Hill & Westhumble Station
The Leatherhead-Dorking line passes through the village of Westhumble; Box Hill is further to the south-east. The line was built by the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway, and the station opened in 1867. According to Dendy Marshall's 'History of the Southern Railway' it has at one time or another been known as 'West Humble', 'Boxhill & Burford Bridge' (for much of its history) and 'Box Hill'.
This is the view in the 'up' direction - towards Leatherhead and London. At the northern end of the station is a footbridge, and beyond that a brick-built road bridge. For a view taken from the road bridge in 1961, see Ben Brooksbank's
