British Industrial Sand had pits and processing plant through the arch under the main Brighton "Quarry Line" in the distance, and sand trains were handled in this yard by their locomotives. Two of these are on view, one with bushes growing around it, the other more recently used. Little or no sand traffic was handled in 1990, all of this has gone now.
