Rowlands Castle railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rowlands Castle railway station is a railway station serving the village of Rowland's Castle, Hampshire, England. It is located on the Portsmouth Direct Line which runs between London (London Waterloo) and Portsmouth (Portsmouth Harbour railway station).
The station has two tracks, and two platforms, and the standard service is hourly to both Portsmouth and Waterloo.
The station was once one of three between Petersfield and Havant, but is the only one to have enjoyed a regular service. Denvilles, to the south, was a temporary station built during an inter-company dispute - the Battle of Havant; Woodcroft halt, to the north, was open for a few years round World War 2, mainly for service personnel.
