There was also a Farnborough curve from Frimley Junction facing west on the LSWR main line; this opened for traffic by 1887. [18] The west curve to Farnborough Junction was only traversed from 1 June 1901, by a Waterloo—Ascot—Basingstoke train. It was reduced to Saturdays only in October 1908, and it ran for the last time on 26 December 1914.
The one train per day from Clapham Junction (07:45) to Guildford via Ascot was also operated by two 456s, but the trains that ran through to Waterloo during the peak periods continued to be operated by Class 458 trains. The Class 456 trains were the main units on the line for a short time, but Class 450 sets now operate alone on the line. [16]
