Summary edit

Description
English: East Grinstead Line Once the town was a crossing point for two lines, that from Three Bridges to Tunbridge Wells and the other linking Lewes to London. The line to Lewes went first in 1958 whilst the Three Bridges-Tunbridge Wells went in 1967 the only remaining line goes to London. Incidentally one of the most frequent users of this line in the 1960s was a certain Dr Richard Beeching who lived outside the town. Whilst the line to Tunbridge Wells was never heavily used, perhaps a little foresight might have kept that to Three Bridges and Gatwick. Viewed from the footbridge which carries the Worth Way to its eastern destination and the site of East Grinstead's former high level station.
