EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Leader Class Locomotive No. 36001 in the siding at Seaford Terminal station, ready for departure towards Brighton via Bexhill and Crowhurst in 1949. The Leader Class, a groundbreaking design for British railways, was introduced in the late 1940s as a replacement for the older locomotive classes. Locomotive No. 36001 underwent a series of trial runs on the route between Seaford and Brighton, both with a light engine and with loaded test trains. These trials were essential to ensure the engine's successful operation on the specific route and to identify any necessary modifications. The engine was being modified at Seaford Terminal before being transferred to Eastleigh for further adjustments. The Leader Class locomotive was a significant advancement in railway technology, featuring a more streamlined design and improved performance compared to its predecessors. The engine's transfer to Eastleigh marked the completion of its modifications and readiness for regular service. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the behind-the-scenes world of railway engineering during the post-war era. The meticulous attention to detail and the dedication of the railway staff are evident in the engine's preparation for departure, ensuring a safe and efficient journey for passengers.
