Chesham

Looking more like a country branch line station (which, of course, it is) than a London Underground station, the exterior of Chesham, terminus of the single-track branch from Chalfont & Latimer, with LU S8 stock train just arrived on left, on the afternoon of Sunday, 12th March 2023. It opened on 8th July 1889 with the extension from Rickmansworth. When the Metropolitan Railway opened its main line through Amersham to Aylesbury on 1st September 1892, it diverged from the Chesham branch at Chalfont Road (now Chalfont & Latimer) and Chesham then rightly became a branch line and remains single track to this day.
