The Wheelshunters Club, Hornshay Street
You have to be a certain age to get the reference to the "Wheeltappers and Shunters Club", a fictional place in a 1970s TV series http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wheeltappers_and_Shunters_Social_Club
In 2011 local media reported it was faced with closure, but I'm not sure whether it is still open or not.

London Overground construction works, south of Surrey Canal Road, December 2011
Between Queen's Road and South Bermondsey stations, the train traveller can see new track peeling off eastwards: the formation for what will become the London Overground line from Clapham Junction onto the old East London Line towards Highbury and Islington. The new line reinstates a former track, used when the East London line was a route for distributing goods to and from the Surrey Commercial Docks.

Hornshay Street subway
A new subway under the railway embankment links Hornshay Street to the west with Bridge House Meadows to the east.
The tower blocks in the distance are (I think) Grasmere Point
Image and Ambleside Point.

Signals on the Peckham link line
The four aspect signal (at double yellow in this view) protects the junction of the link line from Surrey Quays with the South London line through Peckham. because of the curving track, there is an advance repeater, which is showing a diagonal (caution) aspect.
