Built at Brighton Works in September 1911, withdrawn in April 1958 and subsequently scrapped at Eastleigh in May 1958. After 66 long years, an Atlantic can once again be seen steaming around Sussex.

Back in October 2000 the Bluebell Railway announced that it planned on reconstructing a Brighton H2 Atlantic ‘Beachy Head’. Fast forward to 2024 and that dream is now a reality with the engine now ready for light engine runs. These light engine runs would only run up the line just after Horsted Keynes where she would run three times up the Sussex based Branchline. ‘Sir Archibald Sinclair’ would also be running today, making two return trips while running to the Bluebell’s Timetable A.
