Kew Gardens station in 1971, looking along the gently curving platforms with four running lines stretching away beneath a sky full of heavy cloud. The photograph is rich in quiet suburban detail, including the enamel-style Kew Gardens nameboards, the simple wooden lamp posts with their suspended lighting cable, the bench at the right-hand edge, and the plain low building on the opposite platform. A smartly dressed couple stands waiting on the far side, helping to give the scene a very everyday early-1970s feel. Before later modernisation altered much of its appearance, Kew Gardens still had the look of a lightly developed outer-London station, with open views beyond the platforms and a distinctly unhurried atmosphere despite being on a busy main suburban route.
