Actually Redbridge has one scheduled EMU service in the morning rush hour towards Poole. There used to be one that stopped at Millbrook on the way to Branksome nut that disappeared with covid.
My nearest station is Millbrook (Southampton). Although the line is fully 3rd rail electrified, the only scheduled stopping services are DMU's. Are there any other stations like this?
Thanks again. It has run via Eastleigh recently - I think it did yesterday, but the fact that it's only running 'as required' would explain why it's not in the timetables.
Every day Southern 1Y65 stops at Southampton Parkway and Eastleigh (14:35) but is not shown on the departure boards. It's listed as stopping for 'other operating reasons'. As I understand it the route goes via Eastleigh to maintain route knowledge and to give space to the Gt Malvern to Brighton...
I was on the SWR to Salisbury on 3A. The 10:42 came from behind and went past me from platform 4. I'm beginning to think it was just my imagination ...

It must have been in old GWR livery and that confused me - thanks
GWR website says "GWR is operating train services between Portsmouth Harbour and Brighton.". So they don't seem to know themselves what they are doing.
