Eastleigh, Hampshire

For the shear volume and variety of railway traffic, for me Eastleigh was,and is, the nearest and best railway location to head for (although in its time Newport was also a strong contender). Freightliner container traffic dominates, but with a busy yard, loco depot and works, the railway here has always been busy. It's also been a good place for photography, with many vantage points on the station, and also from the road bridges, including Bishopstoke Road bridge, which offers good views looking over the station, stabling point, and out towards the works.
