    Hi Neil,

    A few comments,

    29/45 is a Maunsell mogul, possibly 1826?
    32/45 831 at Basingstoke Up Local Lines
    34/45 833 Brighton with the cliff parallel to the West Coast platforms visible.

    Cheers, Neil

    The shot of 30487 is on an eastbound service so behind the camera is an overbridge (Tuckers #29) and that is consistent with there being a shallow cutting, as in the picture.

    A further comment on 29/45 if I may. This is an early picture of a Maunsell N Class which would have been numbered as A826 at that time, later becoming 1826.

    At the grouping the Southern numbering scheme involved locos keeping their pre-grouping numbers and adding a lettered prefix as appropriate - A for Ashford, B for Brighton and E for Eastleigh - depending on which works were responsible for them. As this led to some confusion between similarly numbered locos - as has happened here:( - the numbering was altered in the late twenties so that Eastleigh locos just dropped the letter prefix, while Ashford locos replaced the letter A by adding 1000 to the number and Brighton locos the letter B by adding 2000 to it.
