Great photos. I come from a railway family and lived in Railway Cottages - Bexhill Road from birth to 13. My grandfather was a engine driver and worked for Southern for 49 years. One of the engines he drove on a regular basis was Schools Class Lancing 904. I just wondered if you or contributors might have photos of this engine they seem to be hard to find.
Many thanks

My husbands ancestors, the Gillham family, lived in 148 Railway cottages for several years. In the 1871 census George was a railway guard. Have been trying to find photos of the cottages

My aunt lived in one of the railway cottages half a century ago. Try an estate agent Sue--you might find pics of the cottages. I believe they are still there as Zoopla show the property's present values.

Malcolm,if you go on Google and type "pictures of schools class lancing ",there is a great photo of the loco.

Thank you for the fine selection of photographs. Could I just point out that, to my knowledge, the locomotive depot was named St Leonards West Marina and not Bo-Peep.

Hi Malcolm !
Just spotted your request for a photo of 904 Lancing. I have one, of the crew
on the footplate, taken c.1954.
As your enquiry is from 2013, if you are still alive, get in touch !
Cheers, Chris.
