Hi Neil

70009 Alfred the Great with the 'Bournemouth Belle'
https://railway-photography.smugmug...0070024-Built-1951-Crewe/7000970012/i-nzz2W6b

This looks like the curve Farnborough side of Pirbright Jn. The local lines were electrified as far as Sturt Lane Jn as part of the Ascot - Ash Vale electrification in the late 1930's but were only used for peak hour and special workings.

Cheers, Neil
