Is this Epsom Downs on Derby Day? There are many more London Transport buses than one would normally expect. Some would have come on a special service from Morden Underground Station.On the extreme left of the picture there appears to be station buildings, Tattenham Corner Station perhaps.

Hi Class31,



It's nice to have this one to add to the Epsom Derby images, a place that Aerofilms Ltd had long associations with (despite the special restrictions that were placed on flying over race-meetings!). We'll update the catalogue and post te new data here in due course.



Yours, Katy

Is this Epsom Downs on Derby Day. There are rather more London Transport buses than one would normally expect, many of them would have come all the way on a special service from Morden Underground Station. On the extreme left of the picture there appears to be station buildings, Tattenham Corner Station perhaps ?

It's Epsom Downs Station as mentioned above.

They demolished it a few years ago, built new houses and made a new station further down the line. That's progress for you.
