The Southampton–Fareham line is a railway line in England, along the south coast of Hampshire. As a through line it came late in British Railway history, traversing unpromising coastal terrain. The first part from Portswood, near Southampton, to Netley was opened in 1866, prompted by the establishment of the Royal Victoria Hospital at Netley, which had been established for the care of wounded soldiers.

  • The Southampton–Fareham line is a railway line in England, along the south coast of Hampshire. As a through line it came late in British Railway history, traversing unpromising coastal terrain. The first part from Portswood, near Southampton, to Netley was opened in 1866, prompted by the establishment of the Royal Victoria Hospital at Netley, which had been established for the care of wounded soldiers. The second stage was the continuation from Netley to Fareham, forming a though route, in 1889. Fareham was already connected with Portsmouth, so by this means, a through route from Southampton to Portsmouth was created. In 1990 the line was electrified, and the passenger train service pattern was changed, with many more trains taking advantage of the Farlington Junction to Cosham chord, to run direct from Havant to Fareham avoiding Portsmouth. The line continues on that basis at the present time. (en)
