Looks like a single track line with a passing loop.

Llanwrtyd Wells?

Very good Peter (you got your own back on my St Ives guess ;)).

I was up there on Saturday picking up a load of VW Beetle parts for a friend and I couldn’t resist a quick snap of the station while I was there.

Yes, it certainly looks like the tower at Surbiton. The adjacent building is not there now but looks familiar. I travelled through there regularly from 2002 until 2015. Was that building removed during that period? Shows how observant I am.

Yes it is Surbiton. I would have taken the photo probably sometime between 1963 and 1967. I just about remember the tower block being built, probably in the late 50s. Don't know when it was demolished but I would have thought around 1980s or 90s rather than the early 2000s.
