The eastbound platform viewed from the covered walkway leading down from the ticket hall to the London bound platform. The station was opened by the London, Chatham & Dover Railway on 1st June 1874. There have been plans to rebuild the station off and on since 2005. A new proposal to regenerate the station and surrounding area is currently at the consultation stage (2015).

The train is formed of a class 465 'Networker' unit which has arrived from London and terminated here due to engineering works further down the line (hence the tail lights rather than head lights).
