Kingston Loop Line

The Kingston Loop Line is a railway line built by the London and South Western Railway (L&SWR) in South West London. It runs in an overall southeasterly direction from a junction west of Twickenham on the Waterloo to Reading Line to join the South West Main Line west of New Malden; both connections face Central London, permitting a continuous "loop" service from Waterloo back to Waterloo. The five stations on the loop line are:

  • Strawberry Hill
  • Teddington
  • Hampton Wick
  • Kingston
  • Norbiton.

Between Strawberry Hill and Teddington a triangular junction connects the Shepperton Branch.

Famous quotes containing the word line:

    Writing fiction has developed in me an abiding respect for the unknown in a human lifetime and a sense of where to look for the threads, how to follow, how to connect, find in the thick of the tangle what clear line persists. The strands are all there: to the memory nothing is ever really lost.
    Eudora Welty (b. 1909)
