Just wondering, are there any rail tours that pass through Swanwick on the Fareham - Southampton line? I'd quite like to be there when something interesting passes through my local.

IIRC there are significant speed restrictions on the Hamble viaduct at Bursledon for most locomotives, and I don't think it is a normal route for steam specials - they nearly always seem to run via Botley in my (limited) experience over the last few years.
