Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox station Haslemere railway station is on the Portsmouth Direct Line, serving the town of Haslemere, Surrey, England. It is Шаблон:Convert down the line from Шаблон:Stnlink, measured via Woking.[1]

History

The large car park (to the south) and industrial estate (to the north) were originally large goods sidings. Platform 3 is an addition to the original structure, built in 1938 when the line was electrified. Until then, Haslemere was just a standard wayside station, but it became steadily busier as commuter traffic from the surrounding countryside grew. There are now four trains an hour to Waterloo and three to Portsmouth.

The station still has its signal box, complete with the original 1895 forty-seven lever Stevens lever frame, situated on the down platform. It was in regular use until a programme of improvements, starting on 12 February 2022, when the line was shut between Guildford and Petersfield for 9 days, saw its functions taken over by the Basingstoke Railway Operating Centre.[2] The box is an LSWR type 4 design and is a Grade II listed building.[3]

The adjoining Foster's Bridge, over Lower Street, was originally built as a two-track brick arch, but was widened later with a metal girder section.Шаблон:Citation needed

Since June 2008, a new footbridge with lifts provides disabled access to platforms 2 and 3.[4]

In December 2016, the station received a new decked car park, which added significant parking space at the station.[5]
