Dist:0.4km north<br/>The 4-VEP units, as seen here, were intended for outer-suburban work. Here one waits with a service to Guildford, via the 'New' line.

Dist:0.4km north<br/>The new road surface is already damaged, possibly due to the new driveway. Writing on the road doesn't need the widest vocabulary, but...

Dist:0.5km north<br/>Someone created this design, someone ordered it, someone made it, someone put it up. No-one pointed out the obvious pointlessness of it. The reason is actually that the 20 limit beyond the sign was agreed after the one in front of it, so when the post was put in, it was going to have a 30 (end of 20) sign. Now it has a 20 (end of 20)! Take a bow Kingston Council! (though thanks for the trees)

Dist:0.5km north<br/>A small open area close to Surbiton, probably looking its best at this time of year.

Dist:0.5km north<br/>The siding at Surbiton station is rarely used: the only time I saw it in use in the five months I was commuting from here was to store civil engineer's machinery while relaying of track was in progress nearby during weekend possessions.

Dist:0.6km south<br/>Another of Surbiton's traditional 'local boozers'. A Gales Brewery pub with a good range of their beers. The Fuller's sandwich board shows evidence of the new owners with a hint that you should enjoy Gales beers whilst you can.

Dist:0.6km north<br/>It would seem that there are many who work here that are in the seat of learning the way of the moped!!

Dist:0.6km north<br/>One of the three Youngs local pubs in Surbiton. Actually half way between Surbiton and Kingston. Beers now from Bedford.

Dist:0.8km west<br/>Together with the Black Lion just round the corner, the keen following of the two pubs will be tasting their last pints of real Youngs' beers as the last mash had just been produced at the brewery in Wandsworth shortly before this picture was taken. A terrible tragedy after centuries of brewing in south London.
