Redhill Platform Zero

(Part 2 of my occasional #Interrail trip series)

Walking from Paddington to #London Victoria Station, from there I went to Redhill. Since it was my first time in London, I was very amazed at how there were many stations the size of #Toronto Union Station.

A goal for some #railfan folks in the UK is to visit every platform zero as they are kind of a novelty. I wasn't looking out for them specifically, but you may see I will encounter one again in a future post.
