Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Oliver Cromwell at Kingsfernsden crossing This steam-hauled excursion train was being operated as part of the 150th anniversary celebrations of the Portsmouth Direct Line. It was due to stop at Petersfield station for water and presentations. The locomotive is 70013 Oliver Cromwell, one of the British Rail Standard Class "Britannia" locomotives, built in 1951.

The line from Guildford via Haslemere and Petersfield to Havant provided a more direct route between London and Portsmouth, albeit via a steeply graded route. It opened in 1859.

The location is Kingsfernsden Lane level crossing, one of two crossings in quick succession about a mile north of Petersfield station. Between the two, the bridge in the background is the Petersfield bypass link road, taking traffic off the A3 onto the old A3.
