The first of two volumes covering the railways of the South East,
this book focuses mainly on Sussex but also includes small sections
of Surrey and Kent. It concentrates on locomotive-hauled traffic
and details a wide range of trains including inter-regional
passenger, parcels and mail, fuel, heavy freight, test trains,
engineers traffic, Rail Head Treatment Trains, Snow and Ice
Treatment Trains, railtour excursions and the luxurious Orient
Express. An extensive range of different liveries, many now
consigned to history on the main line, are shown. There is also a
small selection of DEMUs in some of the areas they once operated.
Over 180 colour photographs, the vast majority of which have never
been published before, serve to illustrate some of the wonderful
countryside to be found in this corner of England as well as the
trains that run through it. They are complemented by informative
captions detailing not only the trains themselves but also some of
the infrastructure and features found along the routes covered. 180
