Description: It's time to visit some more stations, not just by passing through them but actually getting on or off the train at them. So I headed down to the line out to Oxted, and down the Uckfield branch where there were six stations that I needed to cross off my list. I discovered incorrect railway fonts in the wrong colour, a mysterious railway carriage, new step-free access, a steam train, and a delightfully peaceful station to feel calm and at one with nature ... I must also acknowledge that that was a railway crash on this line back in 1994. You can read more about that here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowden_rail_crash
