New England Quarter history


New England Quarter History photo

The first locomotive was produced in Brighton’s steam locomotive works in 1852. By 1896, the works employed more than 2,200 people in the manufacture and maintenance of locomotives for the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. Production lasted until 1957, but the buildings survived for some time before being cleared in 1966 to make way for the largest car park on what was then British Rail’s Southern Region.
