Lovely video and very well put together. Nice to see the children climb into a beautiful compartment at the start. Like the use of "On the Slow Train" Flanders and Swann.

Used to play from the cement work to Steyning, I can remember walking up the line from Shoreham to Upper Beeding after a night out in Brighton, a diesel locomotive came up behind with a blast on the horn, got interrogated and a lift to the cement works. They were carrying out the annual track inspection 😂

That was a great Video 👍

At what point did the line cross the Adur river between Bramber stn and Shoreham stn, was it somewhere near St Botolphs? Was it a bridge? Any info appreciated thanks, nice video.

I remember my grandmother used to when I was younger- oh we'll take the train to Steyning- this was the mid 80s and she would go- "Oh yes that's right- it closed down"

Seem to remember that a short stretch of railway was maintained after closure to passengers for freight trains to supply the cement works.

it was the best one of the best lines

Use to love our weekly summer trip on this line. Up to Steyning Market, Chips in newspaper and back home.

Happy Days

This movie has all the ingredients of what this nation could have had,if the goverments of the day,had put people before `profit`? `Yes it could have paid`...heard this from so many many people. The lunatics were running the asylum,and still are today. So much destruction with no long term thinking. And yes,the `lunatics` are still running the show today? Thanks for putting this up..a well put together piece of history.

What's the Loco in the opening sequence, please?

Fabulous! Very nostalgic. Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks for sharing.
