and a pair of rusting steam engines remained on the site, visible from passing trains, until the early 1990s. Editors please note: These locomotives were being stored in part of the upper goods yard, not part of the old works site, these had been transported back to Brighton from Barry scrap yard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodhams%27_Scrapyard by members of the then active Brighton Railway Museum project based in the old Pullman works north of the railway carriage wash. Mention of this project is made here; http://www.southernelectric.org.uk/segpreservation3142.html SouthernElectric 20:14, 7 September 2007

Paint shop
Can someone add a citation to the following please; "The Paint Shop was converted into an Electric multiple unit maintenance facility and Brighton Works once again seemed likely to close."

No dispute that it was converted for Electric multiple unit maintenance, but I'm not sure it's previous life was that of a paint-shop, well not since the Lancing carriage works had opened and certainly not as implied. SouthernElectric 20:38, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * OK, found a reference for the it's use as a paint-shop but no date other than it being during the LBSC era (LBSC Album by Klaus Marx page 64: Published by Ian Allan Ltd 1982: ISBN 0 7110 1187 7), I still don't think that the building was being used as such before it's conversion for EMU maintenance though, I suspect that it was simply a carriage shed SouthernElectric 15:37, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
