Although I've got loads of footage from this location I struggle to find the time to edit it and put it all together. So I decided to take advantage of a spell of very good weather by filming a selection of what happened to come past over a few days between the 8th and 15th of July 2013, then upload it straight off the camera with minimal editing. So forgive the jerky cuts, wobbly panning, wind noise and all the rest.
Cambria Junction is on the South London Line between Brixton and Denmark Hill, where it crosses the Thameslink line running between Blackfriars and Herne Hill.
It's now possible to stay at Cambria Junction - room available on a nightly basis, with view of the South London Line - enquire via airbnb:
