"a planned railway museum" - the source is from 2013. Is the museum still pending?
According to
this source, construction is planned to start in 2019 and opening in 2022, but I don't know how suitable London-SE1 is as a reliable source. It's self published, though I've no doubt what is on it is believed to be true, I don't think it's backed up by hard, irrefutable evidence.

The section 'London Brighton and South Coast Railway station' refers to the Terminus Hotel, but 'Southern Railway station' calls it the Terminal Hotel.
The platform configuration changes its style three times. The first bullet uses and, the second uses &, and the last two use a dash. I think dashes all around would be nicer, but the use of and and & should at least be consistent.
"was recommended to investigate" - do we know who did the recommending?
Earwig returns a high result for
this source. Most of the flagged portions are false positives caused by unavoidable multiword names and phrases, but two paragraphs in particular are repeated closely. These need to be attributed inline or rephrased. (Note: an internet filter currently prevents me from examining the source directly)
I would say it's more likely that that the source is a reverse copyvio of an old version of the article, and the only bits left are phrases not felt to have required a copyedit in the ensuing years. In any case, the highlighted bits of prose could all do with a bit of a trim anyway, so I've done that.

Thanks for the review. One of the problems (which is obvious if you visit the station) is that there's been a huge overhaul because of Crossrail, that hasn't totally finished (it's not quite looking like a building side compared to 12 months ago, but there's still stuff going on) so there's been a bit of a "moving target", hence obvious problems with the "Services" section which keeps getting random updates.
