Monument record TQ 46 SE 6 - Tonbridge Main Line
Summary
The line between St Johns Station on the North Kent Line, and Tonbridge on the London and Dover Trunk Line, was opened in 1862 to reduce the distance between London and Dover by 12.5 miles. This reduced congestion at Redhill, but helped downgrade the Tonbridge-Redhill section of the original Trunk line from main line to branch line.
