London Bridge plats 10-15 are accessible on the level from the station approach. In London my suggestion would be Fenchurch Street which has ground level access but the platforms are on the viaduct. The next station Limehouse the platforms are wholly on a viaduct with access and ticket office...

Thanks for issuing this photograph. It appears the conductor rail on the left hand (northbound) track finishes in line with the second wagon of the freight train thus explaining why it does not appear in the 1954 photograph of Snow Hill.

Thanks for the information. Looks more complicated that I first thought. Far different from my days working with BR (Southern).! I will be interested to see how Operations Control resolve to arrange to operate a passenger service between Guildford to Redhill when it is available to traffic.

At Redhill surely a 3 car unit (or two) can be berthed in the London end of platform 1 or the old loco sidings..? I agree with "Seimens Staines" that a Guildford to Redhill shuttle using two units should be feasible.

What I am not saying it is illegal but we should reduce the journeys we make to the minimum we consider necessary and essential. In order to reduce the spread of this pandemic I am doing my part and eliminating the number of leisure journeys I make. Those I do make are very local.

What is the legal position in regard to Quainton Road station. which is classified as a private station.? Is it owned/leased to the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre and I beleive the entrance/exit is across their land.

Spa Valley Railway High Rocks station can only be accessed through the grounds of the High Rocks Inn. The station platform is on the land owned by the Spa Valley Railway. Tunbridge Wells West station ( including the locomotive shed) is on land legally owned by Sainsbury's who built their...

I thought Lympstone Commando was on Network Rail land as there is a public footpath between the station and the camp. Gatwick Airport station platforms/ticket office are on NR land with the connecting footbridge crossing the A23 before entering the airport terminal. Where the physical legal...
