Didcot, Newbury and Southampton Railway

Autor: Leandro Alegsa Erstellungsdatum: 1. November 2021

Die Didcot, Newbury and Southampton Railway (DNSR) war eine in Nord-Süd-Richtung verlaufende Überlandbahn zwischen Didcot, Newbury und Winchester in England.

Die Strecke wurde in Etappen zwischen 1882 und 1885 eröffnet. Wegen Geldmangels erreichte sie nie Southampton, so dass die Züge von Winchester nach Southampton auf einer anderen Strecke fuhren.

Die Strecke wurde zwischen 1960 und 1962 stillgelegt, und einige Abschnitte sind zu Radwegen geworden. Es gibt Pläne für den Bau eines Cafés, des "Handlebar Cafe", an der Fahrradroute bei Winchester.
