Beautiful photo Mr. Trub - I'm really curious about that bridge with the building in the center the train is passing under. Is that the Station? Or is the Station that building further back that is barely visible on the left where that passenger carriage is parked? The UK has some very interesting sights along their railroad lines. I would love to visit some day and spend about a month riding around the country.

@ Dana: Yes, this is the backside of the station building, there is a island platform between the two mainline tracks. From the GCR Website: "The station is of typical GCR London Extension design, with one double-sided island platform, reached originally from the road bridge. The island platform was cheaper to construct and more efficient to staff than the more traditional two-platform station." In the very far distance on the left you can see a signal box.
