South West Trains 2-car Class 170/3 DMU 170305 approaches the eastern end of platform 2 at Salisbury station, where it will become the lead of two units on a service to London Waterloo. Prior to this service the unit was stabled in the depot adjacent to the northern side of the station. The move to get here involves exiting the depot westbound, reversing and traversing points at the western enf of the station, running eastbound alongside the unused platform 1 (on the left of the photograph) before reversing again to cross points at the eastern end and arrive at platform 2 westbound.
