Worplesdon Station Worplesdon station was built between Woking and Guildford in 1883. The surrounding area has remained largely rural although there are some large houses within walking distance. It is therefore a quiet place for most of the day but nevertheless enjoys an hourly off-peak service in either direction. In this view, looking towards Guildford, the platforms are deserted and there is a hint of morning mist through the bridge (which was soon to clear leaving a bright sunny day).
