Where abouts is Plaistow station
http://www.derelictlondon.com/id7.htm

I use it frequently but can't recall seeing that site.
And my OS map of Plaistow in the late 1800s
has the station in the same place as
where it is now, IIRC.

Plaistow station has two District Line tracks (4 rails per track
and no overhead wires) with platforms either side of them. On the
south side of all that there are also two "British Rail" tracks (2
rails per track, and overhead electric wires) The platform view is
clearly of the "British Rail" lines, so I would guess that it is a
derelict platform at the current station site. About 50% of the
District Line stations between Upminster and Bromley-By-Bow have
platforms on the British Rail lines, mostly derelict. Judging by
the camera angle, I would say it was taken from the London-bound
District Line platform through a hole in the wall.

That's correct. Probably near the vending machines on the westbound
platform.

I don't have any thoughts about the other picture, except that I
would guess that this too is somewhere at the current station
site.

The first picture is another part of the platform building, immediately
to the right of what you can see in the second picture.
