	Conserving Railway Heritage - Jim Cornell
		The emergence of the steam railway in the early part of the 19th century had a great impact on civilisation and on industrialisation worldwide.
		During this time the railways’ power and prestige were expressed in the many ambitious buildings and structures that were needed to handle the ever-increasing business.
		Railway heritage was regarded in the same manner and the situation probably made worse as the industry lurched from one financial crisis to another.

		It was opened on 2nd October 1865, was run by the 'London Brighton and South Coast Railway'' (LBSCR) and closed just under four months before its centenary on 12th June 1965.
