Tadworth railway station is a passenger railway station serving the large suburban village of Tadworth in Surrey, England, on the North Downs. It is 22 miles 18 chains from London Charing Cross.
This is the penultimate station on the Tattenham Corner Line. Train services and the station are operated by Southern. Tattenham Corner the terminus is north and is close to Epsom Downs railway station: London-bound trains since 1990s privatisation are worked under a different franchise sector of London's periphery. The rivalry of the two stations further north is due to traditionally regular sufficient competition among London and national race-goers wishing to attend Epsom Downs Racecourse. The station opened on 1 July 1900 when extended from Kingswood. The line was extended to Tattenham Corner opened on Derby Day on 4 June 1901, having arrived through relatively costly cuttings from the south. The course taken brought the railway through the centre of Tadworth, before turning sharply north having headed west through Kingswood and yet started heading south then west; since at least World War II the start point has been from London Bridge station next to the City of London.
