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.

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

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 😂

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

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"

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.

[@trevorwest65]

There was a bridge over the river next to the cement works. The Downs link cycle path does a 90 degree right turn where it was.
