Brighton station activities filmed in 1990 and 1991. EMU's from classes 401,405,421,422 and 319 are seen as well as locomotives from classes 09 and 47.
As far as I can remember, they only worked the branch for two or three summers. I am sure that they worked other services, maybe railtours during this period too but I cannot give you specifics. Maybe someone else can help here.
A real trip down memory lane to Brighton holidays as a kid. Great stuff!
very cool...I'd no idea that SUBs or BILs were still dispatched even then 🍸
Excellent video, really great to see all these old 4-CIGs again!
They were running around Ore to Brighton Summer 94 as I was at Bexhill one Sunday afternoon and the Sub rolled in!!!
Shame that's there's not more EE motor sounds or more close up of the SUB n BIL.. Although I have seen footage of them together at Seaford.😊
Lovely video, A real shame you have stopped selling dvds on your site
Great footage nice to see the shunter. Did they ever have a intercity swallow shunter at Brighton ?
The 401's were in service from 1935 to 1969 and the 405's 1941-1983

very nice footage
Very different now
Thanks for posting - any chance of an unedited version of the sequence with the 47 leaving, showing all the stock? Thanks.
I meant when were the 401s and 405s withdrawn from the Seaford branch?
Did they operate any other coastline services at that time?
When were the Class 401 and 405 withdrawn?
I'm sorry, what you see here is all I have.
