New rail flyover at New Cross Gate
This new flyover was constructed in 2008 to allow trains from south of New Cross Gate to access the former East London Line without conflicting with main line services, once the new London Overground service starts in 2010.

View from The Point (2)
View north-west embracing Vauxhall Tower (left) to the City (right).
The Point is one of thirteen protected views in London because of its sightline to St Paul's. It is visible in this photo, a little to the right of the Shard, but is now utterly dwarfed.

East on Cold Blow Lane, New Cross Gate
According to a map from the nineteenth century, nearest the camera was once a bridge carrying a single line to sidings on the west side of New Cross Gate station. The next crossing took tracks to a range of coke ovens. The third and widest crossing carried the main line of the London Brighton & South Coast Railway. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16.9&lat=51.48162&lon=-0.04450&layers=257&right=osm
