Bromley South railway station is on the Chatham Main Line in England, serving the town centre and high street of Bromley, south-east London. It is 10 miles 71 chains (17.5 km) down the line from London Victoria and is situated between Shortlands and Bickley.
The station and most trains that serve the station are operated by Southeastern, with some services also operated by Thameslink. It is in Travelcard Zone 5.
The station, initially consisting of two platforms, opened in November 1858.(See: "London Chatham and Dover Railway").
Electric trains, the first in Kent, began running on the Southern Railway's third rail system between London, Bromley South and Orpington in July 1925.
The last passenger steam trains to serve Bromley South did so in 1959, when lines to the Kent Coast were third rail electrified.
Between 1986 and 1999, locomotive hauled trains between the Kent Coast, the West Midlands, the North West and (for a time) Scotland called at Bromley South.

I really appreciated my time that was spent at Bromley South plus with the amount of variety I managed to see in the time I was there for and it’s a station I haven’t visited and been to before but it was a great place to visit though and I tend to recommend and revisit at some stage.
My next station will be Peterborough which is situated on the East Coast Mainline I haven’t been to that particular station for quite some time but it should be worth visiting so until then thanks for watching and I’ll see you in the next video.
