The station building was at the front end of the platform area - the site is now occupied by an Ibis Hotel. The station is by the junction of Loampit Hill and Tyrwhitt Road (i.e. www.pendar.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk /Tube/GreenwichPark.html

Crystal Palace CampaignB26_highlevel The railway was begun in 1862 from Nunhead to serve the Crystal Palace which had been built on Sydenham Hill in 1854. The Parade lost much, both architecturally and in sheer usefulness, when the Railway was closed and sent into the oblivion of so many of the better things of Norwood.... It was closed during the war and the re-opening on 4 January 1946 was unsuccessful with the station in a poor state of repair. www.crystal.dircon.co.uk /b26_highlevel.htm

PADDINGTON TICKET AUCTIONS LIMITED Station opening/closure dates (where given) are as shown in the publication " The Directory of Railway Stations" by RVJ Butt, published by Patrick Stephens, which we gratefully acknowledge. The light railway closed in July 1932 after a life of only 26 years, this is thought to be a transitional style ticket from the road service that replaced it. Despite severe competition from the railways between Lancaster and Morecambe, the line survived from 2/8/1890 until 31/12/1921 and was never taken over by the larger systems in the places it served. www.paddingtonticketauctions.co.uk /t28/cat.html

Bellingham It was revived in 1892 as the name of a new railway station, then in open country, on the Nunhead and Shortlands Railway. After the First World War the London County Council began to build large estates on the edge of the built-up area of London to ease overcrowding and assist slum clearance. It was the name of the medieval manor in this area, and survived in Bellingham Farm. www.ideal-homes.org.uk /lewisham/bellingham.htm

Transport Plans for the London Area - South The 1989 South London Assessment Study stated that a problem with South London's railways is that stations are served by many routes, but each route has low frequency. In December 1999, London Transport's map of possible Tramlink extensions showed an alignment from South Wimbledon station direct to Tooting Thameslink station (presumably via the abandoned railway), crossing Merton Tramlink at or near Colliers Wood. The new official website for the railway is http://www.southcentraltrains.co.uk, although this was expected to change to http://www.newsouthernrailway.co.uk. www.geocities.com /Athens/Acropolis/7069/tpftla_s.html

Transport Plans for the London Area - East By December 1999, the Thames Wharf station (200 metres southwest of the eastern end of the Lower Lea Crossing) was described as an enhancement to be built at a later date: this is because development around the station is restricted by government safeguarding for the Blackwall Tunnel improvements. An extra 3 stations might be built between Canning Town and Stratford (to be served by the DLR only, not by the adjacent Jubilee Line): one south of West Ham at Cody Road, and two north of West Ham at Abbey Road and Stratford Market. The Docklands Light Railway Bank branch was constructed with a flat part near Tower Gateway to simplify the addition of platforms, allowing the Tower Gateway branch to be closed. www.geocities.com /Athens/Acropolis/7069/tpftla_e.html
