LBSCR Locomotives

This page attempts to provide a list of the various locomotives that ran on the London & Croydon and London & Brighton Railways before and after the Joint Committee (Croydon & Dover Joint Committee from May 1842 to Mar 1844, then the Brighton, Croydon & Dover Joint Committee from Mar 1844 to 12th April 1845), and whilst under the auspices of that committee, and which subsequently passed into the stock of the London Brighton & South Coast Railway or South Eastern Railway in October 1846.

This does not pretend to be a complete list of pre-LB&SCR days locomotives, but contains as many as the author has been able to track down.
