Denmark Hill was almost crowned the UK’s best-loved station after getting over 7,000 votes in an online competition.
The Camberwell-based station made it to the final along with Leamington Spa, but both were defeated by Wemyss Bay in Scotland, with 8403 votes.
Denmark Hill got the second most votes at 7,441.
Founded by the Rail Delivery Group, The World Cup of Stations is an annual contest that celebrates the best railway stations in the UK.
This year, the competition shone a spotlight on the work of dedicated volunteers that support their stations through Community Rail.
The winning Scottish station was praised for its vibrant, colourful community garden and station bookshop which were all developed by the volunteer group.
