The Stroudley Brighton Terriers were one of the most successful designs of tank locomotive to run on the railways of Britain.

They were introduced in 1872 and operated in main line service until November 1963, when ten members of the class were preserved both officially and by heritage railways.

This volume tells the facinating story of there service and operational life, both on the main line and later when many of them had a further existence on light railways and in industry.

John Scott-Morgan and Peter Steer have spent many hours reserching the interesting history of these Victorian survivors that operated long after there original lifespan on many railways across Britain.

John Scott-Morgan was born in Hammersmith London in February 1954, he has always had an interest in railways and transport. He wrote his first book at the age of 18, The Corris Railway Company, which was published in 1977. In the last four decades he has had 38 books published on railway history, covering minor railways, narrow gauge and main line titles. He founded The British Overseas Railways Historical Trust, which preserves documents and photographic archives, connected with British built overseas railways and was instrumental as chairman, for repatriating S P S Class 4-4-0 locomotive number 3157, from Pakistan for the Science Museum in Manchester. He lives in Woking in Surrey, where he continues to write railway history and also be involved with railway preservation. A life-long railway enthusiast, Peter Steer’s career was as an engineer and manager in the electricity supply industry. He is a member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (MIET). Since retirement he has written articles for and edited the Southern Railway Group’s magazine ‘Southern Notebook’. To add to his technical and managerial qualifications he has been awarded a Master of Arts Degree in Railway Studies by the University of York.
