The line from Horsham to Guildford was always something of a backwater and never lived up to the expectations of the promoters. Hopes of channelling traffic from the Midlands to the South Coast via the link to the Horsham – Shoreham route at Christ’s Hospital remained unfulfilled and the branch settled down to an uneventful existence for just short of 100 years closing in 1965. Serving a largely rural community with limited passenger potential trains were infrequent and slow and largely worked by steam until the end. Had it developed into a double track electrified line feeding into a similarly electrified route from Christ’s Hospital to Shoreham and the South Coast then things might have turned out very differently. All stations on this bucolic route are featured together with the variety of motive power that graced its tracks.
