Battersea Park is a suburban railway station in the London Borough of Wandsworth, south London. It is at the junction of the South London line and the Brighton Main Line (although the physical connection between the lines has been removed), 1 mile 23 chains (2.1 km) measured from London Victoria. It is close to Battersea Park, and not far from Battersea Power Station.
The station has an out-of-station interchange with Battersea Power Station tube station on the newly opened Northern line extension to Battersea, part of the London Underground. It is also a short walking distance from Queenstown Road station. Additionally, Battersea Park receives a limited service on the Windrush line of the London Overground, with a small number of early morning and late evening services terminating here instead of at Clapham Junction.
