From the1940"s till the late 1950's (or longer?) we had rhree Electric loco's on the southern region. they were 20001, 20002 and 20003. each one was different in looks and driving controls. we used them for many different types of traing including good work. most probably better known for the excellent job they did hauling the Boat trains from Victoria to london.
I have worked on all three of these loco's in the passed. and would be interested to know how long they actualy lasted, if one of them got preserved and if anyone managed to get any pictures of them. In a book i was loaned some years ago, there appeared a picture of your truly standig on a buffer beam cleaning cab windows prior to leaving victoria with the newhaven...cant fo0r the life of me remember the name of the book thjough. so, all pictures of these 3 electric loco's welcome .
thanky you in advance.
