Description of line

The "Berks and Hants" Line from Reading - up the valley of the river Kennet to Crofton. Double track.



Express services, hourly, London to the South West - but only a few stop at Newbury, and even fewer at Hungerford.

Semifast services London to Bedwyn, about every hour. Trains calling at all stations from Reading to Newbury.



London Commuter belt - from the line to London in the morning peak, returning in the evening.
