| The gantries for the 'Brighton' overhead electric trains can seen stretching across the platforms. Eleven months later in September 1929 this system will have been replaced by the Southern's third rail electric trains. |

On the evening 30 November 1936 my father witnessed the burning of the Crystal Palace from his home in Herne Hill. Only the name remains. |
