Winchester railway station is a railway station located in Winchester in the county of Hampshire in England.
Despite its prominence (almost every passenger train that passes through stops there), the station only has two platforms. One is on the western side, with the line running in the northern direction via Basingstoke, Woking and Clapham Junction, towards the terminal of London Waterloo. The other is on the eastern side, with the line running in the southern direction, towards Eastleigh, where it splits and runs towards Southampton Central and Bournemouth or Portsmouth.
Renovations in summer 2004 gave the western side a refurbished entrance and second ticket office; albeit with shorter opening hours than that on the eastern side.
