Transport of Delight

ex-Southern Railway steam

These photographs date from 1959-61 and are of locomotives from the
pre-nationalisation Southern Railway. These locomotives hail from four
sources: the pre-Grouping London & South Western Railway (LSWR),
South Eastern & Chatham Railway (SECR), London Brighton &
South Coast Railway (LBSCR) and the Southern Railway (SR) itself.

Some SR classes were added to by British Railways, namely the
Merchant Navy, West Country and Battle of Britain Pacifics.
These are identified in the captions by the addition of (BR).

There are 37 photographs in this section.
