The ticket above is dated 1915, when Carshalton was part of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. The following tickets span more than 100 years, and include a Wallington season ticket dated 1944 from during the Second World War.
Nowadays we’re more likely to tap in with our mobile phone, but the colour, wording and typography on these little bits of card are a reminder of the daily and monthly journeys people once took.
This is a fascinating collection of train tickets featuring Carshalton, Wallington, Banstead, Epsom, Carshalton Beeches, Sutton and more. Though a disposable item they’ve remained intact. Take a journey through our collection…
We love these old tickets so much that we’ve put them into an A4 poster so you can enjoy them outside of the virtual world too!
Just £20 each and you’ll help support Secret Carshalton too. Purchase here.
Every journey had a story to tell.
