<br/>Beckenham Junction railway station. And what's that going up at the back - more shops??
©Ron Hann
<br/>Beckenham Junction is a railway station on lines from Kent to London Victoria. The station was opened by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway (LCDR) on 1 January 1857, originally as the terminus for the line from Lewisham; it became a junction on 7 July 1858 when the Bromley Junction (north of Norwood Junction) - Bickley line was opened by the LCDR. It is also a terminus for Tramlink route 2 to Croydon.

The through lines are used by through trains on the direct route to Victoria, (and later were used by Eurostar services to an from Waterloo, until November 2007).
