Tooting Junction railway station (1868-1894)

Tooting Junction was a railway station in Tooting, south London, on the Merton branch of the Tooting, Merton & Wimbledon Railway. It also served one line from Wimbledon into central London. The station was opened in 1868 but in 1894, to better handle the volume of traffic, it was re-sited slightly east. This is the present-day Tooting railway station, which was renamed from Tooting Junction to Tooting in 1938. After the closure of the Merton branch to passengers in 1929 the junction was removed and freight traffic served the small goods yard until 1968.
