4. Can it be connected to the SWML at Farnborough?

Pass. My old 1 inch OS Map 169 shows an embankment between the two
from Southbound to Eastbound, south of Farnborough North Station. I
bet most of the spare land of 1959 has been built on nowadays.

Not sure of the details, but there have been a number of long running
planning appeals in that very area, because the local authority are
insisting various rail formations and corridors are maintained for future
use by the railway, and resisting proposals for infill development.
