Illustrated throughout. The Brighton Line - taken in its broadest sense to cover the routes from Victoria and London Bridge to Brighton, with the allied services to neighbouring South Coast resorts - is one of immense contrasts. It was built as a main line to link London with what had become a fashionable resort stemming from Regency years. In its 50 or so miles it had major tunnels through the North and South Downs and an impressive viaduct across the broad Ouse Valley. 2. Fine/No Jacket.
