<kuid:708819:101604> BR Southern Region - Brighton

Скачать

This route is part 1of a 3 part route for the Southern Region-Brighton/London lne. It includes Gatwick airport to the north, Seaford/Newhaven to the east, and Littlehampton to the west. The Horsham portals allow traffic from Portsmouth or Littlehampton to enter/exit from the Portsmouth/Brighton main line to Three Bridges.

Whilst not the size of my previous Blue Mountains line, this one promises much in the way of interest. Size does not always matter!

Designed primarily as a passenger/commuter route it does include a container depot [Three Bridges] to service a fairly busy port [Newhaven Harbour], a coal facility [located at Ardingly Branch] to transfer coal to the power station [Shoreham], numerous station activity and several rail crossings [TRC configured]. AWS activated.

The London entry portal[s] have a slow and fast route into Gatwick Airport and through to Three Bridges.

Brighton's eight platform terminal together with its Lovers Walk Carriage sidings feed into the main, western and eastern lines. Brighton engineering is where permanent way operations are located..part[s] 2/3 will include Portsmouth Harbour to Southampton and east to Eastbourne

I have tried to be accurate with this Main Line Brighton/London/Portsmouth/Eastbourne/Seaford route, but as always there are limitations. And a bit of creative licence. Love to add a bit of fiction into a route.

Enjoy, and special thanks to .......
