5868 in platform 11 at Clapham Junction
An evocative evening photo of a South Western Railway class 455 doing what it does best every weekday evening as it carries thousands of commuters from London Waterloo out to the South-west London and Surrey suburbs as seen in this view of unit 5868 in platform 11 at Clapham Junction, with platforms 10 and 11 at Clapham Junction being synonymous with the class 455 EMUs since their introduction onto the former BR Southern Region in the early months of 1983. Between 1985 and May 2022 platforms 14 and 15 at Clapham Junction were also synonymous with class 455 EMUs but with these class 455 EMUs operating on the Southern suburban services out of London Victoria to the likes of Crystal Palace, West Croydon, Sutton, Epsom Downs and Epsom.
5868 after arrival at Wimbledon
In this view South Western Railway's 'celebrity' class 455/8 EMU 5868 is seen immediately after its arrival in platform 8 at Wimbledon with its steady stream of passengers having made their way off from the train onto the platform in order to walk up the stairs towards the footbridge to get their bus, tram or Underground train back home. Part of the original platform canopy over platforms 7 and 8 can be seen on the left of the photo with this canopy dating from when Wimbledon station was rebuilt by the Southern Railway back in 1929, with the first class 455/8 EMUs arriving beneath this exact same platform canopy in the first few months of 1983 after arriving onto the BR Southern Region fresh from their construction at the former BREL Holgate Road Works up in York.

The Singing Ship
This is a wonderful art installation at the town of Emu Park on Australia’s Queensland coast, which commemorates the position where Capt James Cook RN landed on 26 May 1770, and named the area Keppel Bay. The mast has tubular wind chimes which create a series of mournful sounds as the wind blows.
