The name was subsequently changed to Penge East by the Southern Railway in 1923. The station is situated very close to Penge West station, on the ex-London Brighton & South Coast Railway's from London Bridge to East Croydon. Heading west from the station the line first passes under the LBSCR line before entering Sydenham tunnel. |

The ornate brickwork, windows and door lights make Penge East a
very attractive station. Especially as it is well cared for these days.
