444043, SW 10.39 London Waterloo-Poole (2B27, 1L), Branksome station 
 444043 slows for its stop at Branksome station working the 10.39 Waterloo to Poole that will soon reach its destination in two stops' time. The junction under the rear coach of the unit is where the former Somerset and Dorset line left the London and South Western metals to its southern terminus at Bournemouth West station. This station was closed after the electrification was completed in the summer of 1965. Today, the site of the station is occupied by the Queens Road car and coach carpark. However, part of the trackbed leading to the terminus is still in use as the home to Bournemouth's train care depot with the units accessing the depot via the junction that involves a rather complicated crossover and reversal.
