Location
Berrylands railway station, operated by South West Trains, is on the South Western Main Line. Normally only Hampton Court Branch trains serve it, but in service disruptions Guildford via Cobham trains make special stops at Berrylands and also New Malden. The station is in Travelcard Zone 5.
The station is on the elevated section of the main line, where it crosses both Norbiton Common and the Hogsmill River, a tributary of the River Thames.
Construction
It was opened on 16 October 1933 to serve large housing developments, which gave the station its name. 90% of the cost of the station was financed by the local developers to enhance the attractiveness of the new estate to commuters.
A modern ground level station (1969) is connected by stairs to the platforms, which are on the outer tracks of the four-track main line. Berrylands is one of the few stations around the London area still constructed with wooden platforms.[2]
Service
The typical off-peak service from the station is two trains an hour to London Waterloo and two trains an hour to Hampton Court. Late night services after midnight from London Waterloo are served by trains to Surbiton on weekdays and Guildford via Cobham & Stoke D'Abernon at the weekends.
