EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as the Brighton and Rottingdean Seashore Electric Railway (BRSER) winds its way through the shallow coastal waters of the English Channel, circa 1900. The BRSER, a unique and innovative transport system, operated between Brighton and Rottingdean from 1896 to 1901. The railway, with its distinctive red and cream car, is seen here making its way towards Paston Pier, with the iconic white cliffs of Brighton and Rottingdean in the background. The railway's tracks extend out into the sea, creating a surreal and unusual sight. The railway's quirky design, with its sea-going cars, was a testament to the ingenuity and vision of its creators, who sought to provide a novel mode of transportation along the coast. The photograph also reveals the quaint charm of the jetty at Paston, with its heraldic arms adorning the coat of arms on the end of the pier. The heraldry, featuring a magnus volk, or sea monster, is a reminder of the area's rich maritime history and the connection to the sea that has long defined the coastal communities of Brighton and Rottingdean. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into a time when transportation along the coast was a novel and exciting experience. The BRSER may no longer be in operation, but its legacy lives on, as a reminder of the innovative spirit and unique character of the Brighton and Rottingdean coastline.
