Foot crossing over Tramlink
The Wimbledon to West Croydon Line was opened in 1855 and closed in 1997 so that the route could be taken over by Tramlink. The original line between Wimbledon and West Croydon just ran as a shuttle between those two stations and although it was electrified in 1930, trains on the line never continued elsewhere. In its latter years trains ran about every 45 minutes. Some sections were single line and this continued when Tramlink took over the route which has been running since May 2000. Just to the left here was the site of the former Merton Park station which closed with the Wimbledon to West Croydon line in 1997. The platform has been removed and no trace remains - the new Merton Park Tramlink stop is further towards Wimbledon, just before Morden Road. This view is from the footpath between Dorset Road and Melbourne Road where it crosses the tram tracks. A very full history of Merton Park station, with photographs, can be seen at http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/m/merton_park/index.shtml
