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.

PS, I'm aware of the permissions system for photoshoots in such places
so no worries from that angle.

Does it need to be underground? If not, Mill Hill East? If so, Lambeth
North?

I'd like to use both, I love the simple architecture of underground
stations and also overground.

I'll check them out :-)

One of your soft-porn projects? May I suggest Newbury Park
underground station? About 6.30 any weekday evening would be good for
me.

You know usenet, don't you? :-) Without that, you'd have attracted
hundreds of self-appointed lawyers, all of whom would forget to answer
the actual question.

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.

that could be ideal, fast trains passing are no problem and could
actually be a bonus. Photos would be cool, email is markvarley at

For lots of background activity, but minimal direct interference,
there's always platform 1 at Clapham Junction (disused, island with
platform 2 with a short train every half hour, many busy platforms
beyond).

Now I think of it, would there be many people waiting at platforms 16
and 17 after a certain hour? Could be better.
