Jim Clemens Collection No.14. Over the years, from 1949 to 1966, Jim visited the Southern Region's main lines and branches on the South & South-West of England many times when steam reigned supreme.


In this volume we begin with a rare black & white film fom his collection of Dover in 1949 and 1950 when West Country and Battle of Britain locomotives were still being built for the newly formed British Railways. DOVER MARINE was still the gateway to the Continent with the famous Golden Arrow Pullman. Pre-grouping locomotives are seen around the shed with L, O1, C and El classes. King Arthurs and Schools also put in an appearance.


There is a visit to BRIGHTON and one to PORTSMOUTH to cross to the ISLE-OF-WIGHT where 02’s worked with ancient stock to NEWPORT, COWES and VENTNOR from RYDE. The branches of HAYLING ISLAND with Terriers, LYMINGTON with M7s and SWANAGE, also with M7s, are covered.

The main line through BASINGSTOKE in 1962 and 1965 with Bulleid Pacifics, rebuilt and un-rebuilt, mixing it with Lord Nelsons and Schools. Western motive power is on inter-regional expresses.


A footplate ride through the New Forest finally ends this first volume of the Southern Region as seen through the camera of photographer JIM CLEMENS.
