Dagenham Dock station
The station at Dagenham Dock is right on the corner of four squares (perhaps just about in 4882 rather than the others). The CTRL high speed railway has recently been built running to the left of it and cutting off the road that crossed the line at this point.

Dagenham Dock station
The construction of the London, Tilbury & Southend Railway line was authorised by Parliament on 17th June 1852. The first section was opened between Forest Gate junction on the Eastern Counties Railway and Tilbury, via Barking and Grays on 13th April 1854. The London, Tilbury & Southend Railway direct line from Bow to Barking (avoiding Stratford and Forest Gate) was constructed from west to east in 1858. Dagenham Dock station did not open at this time but came later when it was opened on 1st July 1908, primarily to serve the industrial areas, including the Ford Assembly Plant.
The Channel Tunnel Rail Link passes immediately to the south of the station, having emerged from the tunnel from Stratford just west of here. The first Eurostars ran along the line on 6th November 2007 following the completion of High Speed 1 and the opening of St Pancras International. Southeastern Javelins now also use the line.
In this photograph the A13 passes overhead while the next station in this direction is Barking. HS1 is just out of sight to the left of the railings.

Chequers Lane, Dagenham Docks
Leading up towards Dagenham Dock railway station.
In the background is the A13 dual carriageway.
These 'kiss-and-ride' facility allow drivers to stop and wait, instead of the longer-term parking associated with park-and-ride facilities.
Am not sure this term should be used when talking about taxis!
