Raynes Park

London

Raynes Park Station, Platform 1 2007. View westward, towards Motspur Park, Epsom etc., with Up local train for Waterloo arriving. The Up Epsom line, which comes from the south, burrows under the Down side and the main line to reach the Up platform.
Waterloo - Salisbury train passing Raynes Park. View eastward, towards Wimbledon and Waterloo: ex-LSW Waterloo - Woking and the West main line; junction of the line to Epsom, Dorking etc. - controlled by the signalbox behind the locomotive. The 18.54 Waterloo - Salisbury semi-fast is headed by SR rebuilt Bulleid Light Pacific No. 34048 'Crediton' (built 11/46, rebuilt 3/59, withdrawn 3/66). The view is from the Up main platform, Raynes Park having Up and Down sides staggered. [One of my few colour photographs of railways in those days].
Lake on Cannon Hill Common. View northward, off Cannon Hill Lane. [It seems to have no inlet or outlet, so where does the water come from?]
Across Cannon Hill Common to Wimbledon - late summer. View NE from near Cannon Hill Lane (and site of former Cannon Hill House, demolished in the 1930's). Wimbledon village is in the distance.
Wimbledon - Autumn on Cannon Hill Common. View NW across Cannon Hill Park from site of Cannon Hill House to Cottenham Park, Wimbledon in distance.
