History
Opened in 1878 by the London and South Western Railway, when it was known as Camberley & York Town, the station gained a second platform fifteen years later when the line through here was doubled.
The route was electrified, on the third rail system at 650 volts DC, by the Southern Railway on 1 January 1939.[1]
The station was completely rebuilt in 1975.
The signalling is controlled by a rail operating centre in Basingstoke, after the Feltham resignalling project undertaken by Network Rail
