Sandilands Junction
Sandilands Junction
The junction is part of the Tramlink network where the line from New Addington joins that from Beckenham Junction and Elmers End. It was here in November 2016 that a tram from New Addington derailed on the tight curve approaching the junction with the loss of seven lives - the first passenger fatalities in a UK tram since 1959.
Tramlink

Tramlink is a tramway operating between Wimbledon and Beckenham Junction in South London. The system is centred around Croydon. It opened in 2000. Tramlink runs on a mixture of street track shared with other traffic, dedicated track in public roads, off-street track, and former railway lines.
