Pictures[edit]

Hopefully, I will be able to obtain a picture of the station entrance and the interior and if someone could enter something about the depot or make a page entitled Selhurst Depot I could include a image on that too! Pafcool2 16:27, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SE 508
I don't supose you got a better shot of a southeastern 508, as we've struggled to find a pic on wikipedia of one ??? Pickle 18:47, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'll try my best to find one, but I doubt I could get one any time soon, maybe in a couple of weeks. Pafcool2 11:44, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The caption beneath the picture of the pumping station is incorrect as Portland Road goes beneath the line, not over it, and is essentially right in the foeground. The view is northwards and shows the original Goat House Bridge which is named after the pub on its east side and which joins South Norwood High Street to Penge Road. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.176.100.248 (talk) 20:51, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Selhurst Depot[edit]

Anyone have any more information on Selhurst Depot, it would come in very useful, thanks.Pafcool2 12:02, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Owner of the station[edit]

Croydon Advertiser, dated today, states that Norwood Junction is going to fall under TfL ownership as from Sunday (20th September). Can't find any online sources online, but it is in print. Do you think that the article should be changed to reflect this? Smoothy (talk) 14:06, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Flyover[edit]

I removed the sentence about the flyover remaining in use based on Howard Clayton's book The Atmospheric Railways and Charles Hadfield's book Atmospheric Railways. They point out two reasons that the flyover could not have continued in use, which I find very convincing: that the 2 per cent grade on each side was beyond the capability of the locomotives of the day, and that the wooden structure was too weak to support locomotives. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JoeBrennan (talkcontribs) 02:08, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
