The Petersfield Railway opened in 1864,the promoting company having been absorbed by the London and South Western Railway (LSWR) in 1863. The Mid-Sussex lines reached Midhurst in 1866,after being absorbed by the London,Brighton and South Coast Railway (LBSCR) in 1862. The two lines did not connect,and there were two separate stations close by one another. The Chichester line took much longer to complete,and was opened in 1881,and a new LBSCR station was opened,replacing the first station. In 1925 the former LSWR line was connected to that station.

The Three Bridges to Horsham branch of the LBSCR was at first the sole access from the north to the Mid-Sussex railways,although a line from Leatherhead was used later.
