On Saturday 2nd February at 7pm Ian Gledhill will
present a talk about
Magnus Volk and the Volk’s Electric Railway which has
been running along Brighton Seafront for 129 years! The other not
less remarkable creation and probably the most recognisable was
the
Brighton and Rottingdean Seashore Railway (Daddy Long Legs).
Ian had a
diverse career in tourism and travel, music, television and theatre, as well as
railway engineering. He currently divides his time between directing operas,
helping to support Volk’s Railway and giving talks to the public.
You can purchase a ticket in advance for £5 at the museum or for £6 on the door.
