quiet stations

I'm looking for a very quiet station, one with very little people
traffic either late at night or weekends, somewhere on the tube
network or a rail station not too far out, this is for an informal
photoshoot for which it's best to not have numerous people around.
so any suggestions? somewhere on a little-used oddity of a
branchline or even a disused station that can still be accessed, I
need tracks and platform not too overgrown.
Platform "0" at Southall. It's the disused face of the island platform
that includes Platform 1 on the down main Great Western. As trains pass
Platform 1 at 125 mph, it's not quiet sound-wise, but there are normally
no passengers on that island at any time of day or night as no trains
stop there. Platform 0 has the occasional freight train; the track is
in good condition and the platform mostly so. If you're interested, I
can send you some photos I took about a year ago.
