Rachmaninoff’s Second Piano Concerto should be played permanently at
Clapham Junction (or was it London Bridge; someone will know!)


Are you thinking of "Brief Encounter?". That was the fictitious "Milford
Junction", filmed at Carnforth in Lancashire.

Thanks; I always thought it was supposed to be a London station, and
that the woman lived in Surrey.

Milford Junction was portrayed as a "suburban" station, without being
specific about location. If anything Milford Junction was in the North
West of England, judging by some of the Characters accents - and the
signs on the station that showed which platform to go to for some
places local to Carnforth.

I don't know why, but everybody seems to think that Brief Encounter
was set in the war - it wasn't - it was set pre war. It was MADE
during the war.
