    Does anybody know what train station was used for the mythical suburb of 'Brockhurst Common' in the 1947 John Mills film The October Man?



    I'm assuming it was a genuine station near London?

    Interesting question......the exterior looked liked West Drayton, which is not far from Pinewood, irony is I was there on Saturday where I alighted to catch a Bus to have a look at Heathrow's new Terminal 5, and wish I had taken a pic now!

    (the Pub on the corner of the Station Yard was seen in Geniveve)



    Fortunately it's one of the few remaining stations that still has it's original building.......
