Tooting is a railway station in the London Borough of Merton, south London; it is within Travelcard Zone 3. The station is served by Thameslink and (occasional) Southern trains, and is on the Sutton Loop Line.
The station opened in 1894 as Tooting Junction, replacing an earlier station of the same name which was located a few hundred yards west which had opened in 1868. It was renamed Tooting in 1938, following the closure of the branch line from Tooting to Merton Park to passenger traffic in 1929.
The typical off-peak service from the station is 2 trains per hour to St Albans via Herne Hill and London Blackfriars (clockwise around the loop) and 2 trains per hour to Sutton via Wimbledon (anticlockwise), run by Thameslink. Additionally, Southern runs between 3 and 5 services per day between Wimbledon and London Bridge.
London Buses routes 44, 77, 264, 270, 280 and 355 and night route N44 serve the station.
