An unusual view with four trains in shot. Nearest the camera is ‘4-VEP’ No. 7813 on a Waterloo - Strawberry Hill via Kingston service. It was built in 1970 and was delivered in blue/grey livery which replaced the all-blue on all of these units in the early 1970s.

Simon James adds " Imagine grass growing on platforms at Clapham Junction now! Just shows why in the '70s wholesale closures were still thought of, nobody was using the railway very much".
