Here be trains (once upon a time)
Not a very inspiring picture; a chain-link fence with a single-carriageway road glimpsed beyond. However, I'm standing on the formation of the old Southampton & Dorchester Railway where it was carved through by the A31 Wimborne by-pass. Almost impossible to think this was once the trunk rail line linking London with Dorset.
