 This itself was linked to the main Waterloo-Portsmouth line at Liss in 1942.It was possible to travel to Liss from Bordon via Oakhanger Halt on the Longmoor Railway.The fortunes of the Bordon Light Railway were inextricably linked with those of the Army Camp that it served, so that when army traffic began to decline after the Second World War and the line became a financial liability, the decision was made to close the line to passenger services with effect from 16 September 1957, with the line remaining open to freight to meet army requirements.
