Railway Line and Station at Marchwood
Image: © Peter Facey Taken: 27 Sep 2008
Taken from the level crossing on Main Road. I presume the station is defunct. The railway line forks beyond the horizon, with the left fork going to Marchwood Military Port and the right one going to Fawley oil refinery. Note the old fashioned moving-arm signalling and the lack of any electrification.
