The film opens after Britain's declaration of World War II. Roy Cronin, an army colonel, is being driven to London's Waterloo Station en route to France, and briefly alights on Waterloo Bridge to reminisce about the past. Roy and Myra serendipitously meet on Waterloo Bridge and strike up an immediate rapport. Hours before his planned marriage to Myra, Roy is suddenly deployed to active military duty in France. Myra scans a newspaper and faints on seeing the name of her fiancé Roy in a list of war dead. Unable to find employment, Myra works as a prostitute. One year later, while offering herself to departing and arriving soldiers at Waterloo Station, Myra catches sight of an arriving Roy. In the end of the movie, Myra, depressed, reminiscing on and then traversing Waterloo Bridge, the location where the love affair began, takes her own life by walking into the path of a moving truck.
