Had plans to electrify the route in 1946 not been abandoned then perhaps the double tracked cross country line from Horsham to Brighton might still be with us today. Closed in 1966 against a background of much local opposition and dubious BR financial figures the line is still fondly remembered nearly 60 years later and is recalled here in these images mainly from the 1950s and 1960s taken from the extensive Transport Treasury archive. This is the first volume in a duology the second of which will cover the branch from Horsham to Guildford both routes forming what was originally planned to be a through route from the Midlands to the South Coast but with such traffic never materialising both lines remained two separately operated entities until the withdrawal of services.
