View NW, towards Romsey and Salisbury: ex-LSWR Eastleigh - Romsey - Salisbury/Andover line. In the past it had been quite a busy line, especially for freight, but by 1984 is reduced to a single-line running only through to Salisbury, Romsey - Andover Junction having closed from 7/9/64. Chandlers Ford station was closed from 5/5/69, but as the area became increasingly populated, a new station was built, opening on 19/10/03, and a local service was re-introduced from Romsey - Eastleigh - Southampton.
