Photograph Notes: The Clapham Rail Disaster occurred on 12th December 1988 and involved three trains just south of Clapham Junction. As a result of the collisions, 35 people died, 69 were seriously injured and another 415 received minor injuries. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clapham_Junction_rail_crash for a detailed account of the events. This memorial next to Spencer Park is immediately above the line where one train went into the back of another. A small garden has also been created on the embankment. Pupils and teachers from the nearby Emanuel School were first on the scene of the disaster. They were commended for their service by the then Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher.
