In 1929 these sidings would be removed to make way for the new railway from Wimbledon that climbed through a cutting between the line from Cheam and the houses backing onto the railway. It approached the railway seen here almost at a right angle, leading to a sharp bend about seven metres below the line from Cheam before it climbed the join the mainline just before the station.
