The OFFICIAL GBRf 'depot' at Eastleigh are the lines adjacent to the station - and there's nothing remotely resembling a fuelling point there whatsoever. The DBS/EWS locos refuel at the TMD, and the Railfreight locos use Southampton Maritime, but as for the GBRf locos....? I think the nearest facility might be at St Leonards, but I could be wrong.
An odd thing is that XC Voyagers can be found at Eastleigh TMD, so I'm not quite sure how THAT works....
