The Managing Director of South Western Railway, Claire Mann, met with the Winchester and Chandler's Ford MP, Steve Brine at Winchester Railway Station.

Steve organised the meeting to discuss the rail company's performance and pass on a huge range of issues raised by commuters, residents and organisations in Winchester.

Following the meeting the MP added : "We packed a lot into an hour and thank you to constituents who stopped to chat with us both about their experiences of travelling by train."
