A re-run of UK Railtours The Andover Fist charter took place on 8th April 2017, the original on 5th November 2016 being abandoned after a derailment at Southampton Dock Gates. Class 66/0 No. 66165 (with No. 66005 at the rear) slows to collect the single line token at Marchwood, before continuing as far as the Network Rail limit at Fawley. This would be one of the last trains to visit Fawley, as oil trains ceased in September 2016 and the line beyond Marchwood is expected to be mothballed.
