Chislehurst railway station

Chislehurst railway station is on the South Eastern Main Line, serving the neighbourhood of Chislehurst in the London Borough of Bromley. It is 11 miles 19 chains down the line from London Charing Cross and is situated between Elmstead Woods and Petts Wood stations.

The station was originally named Chislehurst and Bickley Park when it was first opened on 1 July 1865: the South Eastern Railway had opened part of its cut-off line to Dover on that date. On 2 March 1868 a new station was opened south of the original on completion of the cut-off to Tonbridge. At the beginning of the 20th century the tracks through the station were quadrupled. Beyond Elmstead Woods station to the north of Chislehurst lie the Chislehurst Tunnels, a tunnel each on the slow lines [649 yd ] and fast lines [591 yd ].
