Looking east from the eastern end of the island platforms 1/2 that form the high level part of Portsmouth and Southsea station. On the left is the roof of a Class 450 train at one of the low level platforms; on the right are the roofs of Class 444 trains in the sidings. It is not immediately obvious from this photograph but the lines beyond the signal on the left are on a significant gradient down to ground level.

Platform 2 at Portsmouth and Southsea railway station. This platform is one of the two through platforms that form the high level part of the station. Almost(?) all trains that call at this platform are trains to Portsmouth Harbour, the only station between here and the end of the line, but the "OFF" display facing drivers heading from the harbour shows that the line is bidirectional.

The ticket office at Portsmouth and Southsea station makes good use of its two-storey height by displaying various pieces of art. The train in the centre arch looks to be an APT with a multiple unit in Network SouthEast colours behind it. I'm not certain if APTs ever made it to Portsmouth.
