Riddlesdown railway station is on the Oxted line serving Riddlesdown in the London Borough of Croydon, south London. It is in Travelcard Zone 6, 13 miles 38 chains (13.48 miles, 21.69 km) from London Bridge,[2] although off peak trains run to and from London Victoria. The Oxted line was opened in stages by different companies; Riddlesdown lies on the portion between South Croydon and Crowhurst Junction (to the south of Hurst Green), which was authorised in 1878 and opened on 10 March 1884 by the Croydon and Oxted Joint Railway. Riddlesdown was not one of the original stations on the line – it was opened by the Southern Railway on 5 June 1927.[3][4] It is managed by Southern.
