    1/38 Millbrook Down Main Line with Docks lines in the background
    7/38 Swaythling Down Line. The footbridge in the background still exists
    8/38 Southampton Airport/Stoneham Lane Up Line
    17/38 Possibly Otterbourne, site of water works siding
    27/38 Shawford
    25, 28 & 30/38 Southampton Airport / Stoneham Lane
    Thanks for sharing, surprisingly some buildings in the background of a few photos still exist...

    Photo 2/17 appears to be BR Class 3MT 2-6-2T 82036 hauling RCTS Gloucestershire Rail Tour on 21st July 1963. Don't know location myself but I have read somewhere that it might be near Ryeford [but this appears to be uncertain].
    Photo 3/17 is Port of Bristol Authority No. S11 "Bristol" (Peckett No. 2036 of 1943) hauling the same tour around the Avonmouth Dock Estate.
