The gate at Victoria would have been called the ticket barrier, where the staff member was the ticket collector. Trains to Ramsgate could have been in the hands of any of the SE section's 4-4-0s – D, D1, E, E1, L, L1 or Schools – or a mogul (U, U1, N or N1) or even a Bulleid pacific. Electrification of that route didn't come until the early sixties.
