An artist has been reunited with his railway-themed paintings after they were donated to Romsey Signal Box.

Peter Willis, who is known for his diverse subjects, was delighted to see the original versions of his art at the site.

The paintings depict the Black Prince passing Romsey Signal Box, the Andover Canal bridge over the railway and Romsey station.

These have been on sale as greetings cards at the signal box for some time.

They are now proudly displayed in the site's Buffer Stop Café.

Peter said: "I'm delighted that all three paintings have found such an appropriate home, where they can be enjoyed by all those who visit this fantastic site."

Dick Hewett, chairman of the Friends of Romsey Signal Box, was thrilled to see the artist reunited with his work.

He said: "It was a pleasure to be able to reunite Peter with his paintings.

"They are wonderfully evocative depictions of Romsey's railways in the past, and nothing could provide a better and more fitting backdrop in our café."

The Romsey Signal Box, which is located in Brick Lane, behind Plaza Parade in Winchester Road, is open to the public on the first Sunday and third Saturday of each month from 11am to 4pm.
