In the foreground, the railway line can be seen crossing Canute Road; it then continues to the left, into Southampton Docks. Beyond the crossing, can be seen part of the former London & South Western Railway "Southampton Terminus" station. The station opened in 1839, closed in 1966. I recall using this station, either in 1965 or 1966. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southampton_Terminus_railway_station
