River Ravensbourne, near Elverson Road station
This is looking downstream. Although the Ravensbourne is the traditional boundary between Surrey and Kent, this boundary runs along the natural course of the river, somewhat west of here, so that all this bit is actually in Kent - that is, the real Kent before it started to be gobbled up by London!

Looking up the line from Lewisham station
The original part of Lewisham station opened in 1849, on the North Kent Line which by-passed Greenwich because the Royal Observatory did not want their sensitive instruments disturbed by trains. This view looks up the line towards St Johns. The train on the left has come from Victoria and is crossing the flyover under which bypass lines miss out Lewisham station altogether. It was under this flyover where the Lewisham train disaster of 4th December 1957 happened when 90 passengers were killed in Britain's third worst rail disaster.
