Clapham High Street railway station is on the South London Line from London Victoria to London Bridge.
It is close to Clapham North station and interchange between the two is counted as an Out of Station Interchange (OSI) on Oyster, so journeys involving a change between the two are charged as through journeys and not two separate journeys.
It is operated by Southern trains. The next stations are Wandsworth Road to the west towards Victoria, and Denmark Hill to the east towards London Bridge. Trains also run east to Brixton, but no trains stop at both Clapham High Street and Brixton (apart from occasional diversions).
The station is unmanned.

Famous quotes containing the words high, street, railway and/or station:
“Our domestic problems are for the most part economic. We have our enormous debt to pay, and we are paying it. We have the high cost of government to diminish, and we are diminishing it. We have a heavy burden of taxation to reduce, and we are reducing it. But while remarkable progress has been made in these directions, the work is yet far from accomplished.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“If you have only one smile in you, give it to the people you love. Don’t be surly at home, then go out in the street and start grinning “Good morning” at total strangers.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
“Her personality had an architectonic quality; I think of her when I see some of the great London railway termini, especially St. Pancras, with its soot and turrets, and she overshadowed her own daughters, whom she did not understand—my mother, who liked things to be nice; my dotty aunt. But my mother had not the strength to put even some physical distance between them, let alone keep the old monster at emotional arm’s length.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“Say first, of God above, or Man below,
What can we reason, but from what we know?
Of Man what see we, but his station here,
From which to reason, or to which refer?
Thro’ worlds unnumber’d tho’ the God be known,
‘Tis ours to trace him only in our own.
”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
