Railway station

The railway through Elmers End was opened on 1 April 1864 as an extension of the Mid-Kent Line from New Beckenham to Addiscombe by the South Eastern Railway; there was a branch, opened on 29 May 1882 to Hayes at this station. The portion of the line to Addiscombe, which was originally named Croydon (Addiscombe Road), was closed in 1997 when the trams took over much of the trackbed from Elmers End. The Hayes line service on the suburban commuter railway line between Hayes and London Charing Cross through Elmers End is still in use. The station located on Elmers End Road (A214), at the NE corner of South Norwood Country Park. One former railway platform is now the terminus for Tramlink Route 1 services from Wimbledon via Croydon.
