211-212. Brighton

Brighton engines are greatly under-represented in this archive. I have looked out the only two others I can find and include them here.
211. B647 with a powerful King Arthur Class neighbour, E797 Sir Blamor de Ganis. The A1X used to be No. 47 Cheapside built in 1876.

212. LB&SCR 326 Bessborough, J Class 4-6-2T (1912, a class of only 2, the other being Abergeveny). Lord Bessborough was on the Board and the name was taken from a B4 Class engine (see picture 136). Geoff: Down Southern Belle at Balham Intermediate. Published in RM in October 1912 credited to F E Mackay. Most of Mackay's glass plates were destroyed on his death in the 1930s so it is good to identify a Mackay image..
