    Great station for transportation links. The front entrance will lead you straight to the district line, with ticket machines just inside and sandwich shop. Platforms 1-8 inside and tramlink platform

    Are you Hungry? Peckish? or craving for a little coffee? Pop into Platform's 7 & 8 where you can find a Starbucks chain. Downside is: they're a franchise; so you can't use your loyalty card!

    District line section is an absolute disgrace, trains always late with staff that don't care to provide any updates on what's going on. Be prepared to have delays to your journey when traveling!!!

    Platform 8 will always have trains that go to Clapham Junction and Waterloo. The District Line is at the back of the station and trams run from platform 1

    I always miss the edgwar road train when I come from tolworth. Once I was lucky and I could catch it!

    Better than the note suggests. However, the indicators of the District Line trains departing cannot be trusted.

    Getting on the District line? You can tell when the doors are about to shut as the signal at the end of the platform goes green about 20 seconds before the train is about to depart.

    Check out the waiting room on platform 5: this is a bookswap place, you can bring your old books and get some new ones!

    Try the chicken burger at Snoggy's with the chilli sauce, very good. Better than Dino and same price.

    The guy on the newspaper stand on platform 5 mutters incoherent words when you buy a paper. Highly amusing

    Not a London Overground station! Nearest place on the Overground is Clapham Junction - trains there from platform 5.

    Don't run if it's wet weather. A dangerous place, major slippage hazard!

    If you are running for a District line train and the light at the end of the platform is red then you are stressing unnecessarily!

    As I am often the Mayor I guess I should leave a tip...don't talk to strangers. Unless the tennis is on and they're cute.

    Has anyone seen any Wombles here? Do they get this far from the common - just saw a woman dropping litter and didn't see it vanish. Or do they know when people are watching?
