Not as aged as Old Milton…read more This is a typical little station with a road bridge going right over it at the end of the platform. Not too many trains stop here anymore, but it has a cute little Old English style house here which separates it from many other of the regional stations. Definitely one of the prettier stations in Hampshire, but also very low key. It dates to 1886 and it's just a little village railway station really.

I use the train a lot, so feel reasonably qualified to tell a good station from a bad one and was…read morepleasantly surprised by New Milton Railway Station when I visited recently. There's plenty of car parking and the station platforms and buildings appear clean and well-maintained. The ticket office staff were helpful and knowledgeable despite my asking awkward questions about different ticket types and rail operators. The waiting room was warm and comfortable and although I'm not a trainspotter by any stretch of the imagination, the wall displays of old steam trains and railway memorabilia were interesting to look at and helped to pass the time.

So this is a little old station in Romsey, which is on the line from Waterloo into Southampton, and it's a listed beautiful old building with a very unique and very attractive design. It feels like a tiny little town station, but with a truly grand building and style, and is definitely one of the nicer stations you'll find in this part of the country.

The historic town of Romsey has a well-preserved and well maintained traditional railway station on…read morethe line from Salisbury to Southampton. It is used by over 330,000 passengers a year. The station opened in 1847 on the line from Southampton to Salisbury (via Eastleigh). In 1865 the route from Andover to Southampton via Romsey and Redbridge opened, making Romsey a junction; also known as the Sprat and Winkle Line, it closed between Andover and Romsey in 1965, but the southern section from Romsey to Redbridge (on the Southampton-Bournemouth line) remained to form the main Salisbury to Southampton line. The Eastleigh to Romsey line closed to passengers in 1967 but reopened in 2003, making Romsey a junction station once more. It is served by the Cardiff/Bristol to Portsmouth service (roughly hourly, half-hourly at peak times) and the Salisbury-Romsey-Southampton-Chandler's Ford-Romsey service, which provides an hourly service in all directions (and thus provides two trains and hour to Southampton, one direct, and one via Chandler's Ford, Eastleigh and Southampton Airport). Facilities include a ticket office (open part time), ticket machines, toilets, waiting rooms, covered bicycle storage, a small cafe (open part-time) and a small car park.

I don't hang out in Parks when I'm Stoned, but if you do, go instead to Parkstoned…read more Parkstone is a little local railway station that is just outside Poole, next to Bournemouth, so one of the biggest urban areas in Dorset. It's a little local station that looks like a village station, even though it's technically in the suburbs. You can get trains to London and Weymouth and whatnot from here. It's not frequented too often but it has a cute little Station House and is a typical and fun little station that was one of many I visited when traveling around the South and Southwest by train.

I travel by train a lot, so feel reasonably qualified to judge whether a station is good or not…read more I am prepared to make an allowance for the fact that Parkstone isn't the busiest of railway stations and therefore can't be expected to have long opening hours or a myriad of services and facilities, but I do wish it was a bit cleaner! I often find the benches strewn with rubbish, beer cans and food which is not great, but to be honest, the benches are pretty rusty and past their best anyway. Not a bad station, but would be a lot better with a little care and maintenance.

If you wanna taunt me about writing railway station reviews, go ahead, I don't care. Feel free to…read moreget your Taunt On. This is a very modern looking railway station, which gets quite a bit of traffic and has a bunch of different tracks, and some heavy trains coming through here. It has coverings on all the platforms, except for the big middle one. The building looks like it was just built yesterday, but I wasn't born yesterday, so I'm sure it wasn't. The entrance way looks especially futuristic, and even though the station dates back to 1842, it had a major facelift pretty recently. The footbridge that is next to the station is known as 40 steps, but it's no longer here. Sadly this legend is gone, which was demolished in 2013, and was very sad because it was one of the most famous parts of the station, and that's why I took one star off the station.

They have a large car park and car hire at a good rate. They travel to a wide variety of destinations at reasonable times and quite often.

I would recommend travelling by train if you want to arrive quickly and cheaply to your destination with no fuss or hassle.
