Been trying to find this video for years after watching it and then it disappeared. Great to see how the areas have changed. Thanks for re uploading it 👍
Amazing video. Guessing it was filmed somewhen in 1995 or so. Network Southeast is everywhere, so pre privatization, but the Fareham Eastleigh line is electrified (obv) so post 1990. If I'm remembering correctly, the M3 looks complete just past Shawford, so post Twyford down construction, which puts it about 1994 or so. Amazing fascinating video though. I would have been through here a few times, I used to ride the train along to coastway from Horsham to Southampton pretty regularly between 1988 and 1995 or so.. Edit: the 159 at Winchester confirms 1994 or later - they didn't enter service until then.
Love the detailed information, believe there was also a siding on the down side after Fareham tunnel to serve Funtley Brickworks. Also Bubb Lane (after Hedge End) had an Admiralty siding and at one time a signal box.

Would be great to see this video updated to Hi Definition video, still great though....

Smoking permitted in all carriages, I presume?
Was just the first/end carriage bay before the 1st class compartments you could smoke in IIRC
