In memoriam, to mark the 50th anniversary of 5 November 1967 Hither Green, London SE6. 49 rail passengers died and many more were wounded after a commuter train derailed in south-east London.
The 19:43 express train was travelling from Hastings to Charing Cross when at 21:16 it crashed off the rails between Hither Green and Grove Park stations near the Southern Region Continental goods depot, on the bridge which crosses the South Circular Road.
