Explore the fascinating history of railway signalling along the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway and Isle of Wight routes.
From Brighton's pleasure destination beginnings to the establishment of the railway commuter, discover how the railway grew to cover large parts of Surrey and Sussex. Allen Jackson uses an array of photographs to illustrate lavishly the story of signalling in the principal constituents of the Southern Rail region.
Focusing on the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway and Isle of Wight routes, this volume explores the mechanical signalling that remained in seaside resorts and other routes not seen as a modernisation priority. Massive investment in recent years has rendered or will shortly render the remaining mechanical signalling and signal boxes redundant, but the LB&SCR will live on at the Bluebell heritage railway. The Isle of Wight railway continues in a proud independent tradition. This is a must-have for railway enthusiasts and historians.
