Farnborough (Main) (FNB)

Information
Type: National Rail
(South Western Main Line)
Station code: FNB
Opened: 1838
Platforms: 2
The station was opened by the London & Southampton Railway in 1838, later becoming a London & South Western Railway station. Originally the station had just two lines through it with an island platform inbetween. When the line was quadrupled in the early 1900s new platforms were added on the outer lines and the original island platform removed. The demolition of the original platform means there is a wide gap between the two through lines.

The station is served by four trains an hour in both directions by South Western Railway.
