Operated as a historical seafront tourist attraction, the railway does not usually run during the winter months, and its service is also liable to occasional suspension due to severe weather or maintenance issues.
History
In 1883 Magnus Volk opened a short, 2ft (610mm) electric railway running for 1⁄4 mile (402m) between Swimming Arch (opposite the main entrance to Brighton Aquarium, and adjacent to the site of the future Palace Pier) and Chain Pier. Electrical power at 50 V DC was supplied to the small car using the two running rails. In 1884 the line was extended a further ½ mile beyond the Chain Pier to Paston Place (now known as Halfway), and regauged to 2ft81⁄2in (825mm). The electrical supply was increased to 160 V DC and the power plant was installed in the arch built into the cliff face at Paston Place. In 1886 an off-set third rail was added to minimise current leakage.
One advantage of electrification is the lack of pollution from the locomotives. Electrification results in higher performance, lower maintenance costs and lower energy costs.
Power plants, even if they burn fossil fuels, are far cleaner than mobile sources such as locomotive engines. The power can come from clean or renewable sources, including geothermal power, hydroelectric power, nuclear power, solar power and wind turbines. Electric locomotives are quiet compared to diesel locomotives since there is no engine and exhaust noise and less mechanical noise. The lack of reciprocating parts means electric locomotives are easier on the track, reducing track maintenance.
The oldest electric railway in Britain is a little narrow gauge line at the seaside. Here's its story.

Volks Electric Railway Driver's Eye View (Man walks in front of train!)
A driver's eye view of the Volks Electric Railway, Brighton. Thank you so much to the driver who let me get in the cab. At 4:50, a man crossed the tracks without looking and was nearly hit by the train. I know that he was fine, but he was lucky. There’s
a reason that the signs say stop, look and
listen, and if the train had been going
much faster he might not have been so
lucky. I know most people watching know
all this, but do be careful. Crossing the
line without looking has killed.

A visit to Volk’s Electric Railway in Brighton, East Sussex. We take the train from Aquarium station, via Halfway, to Black Rock. Also includes return journey.
Opened in 1883, the railway was invented by Brighton-based engineer Magnus Volk. The original trains still run the mile-long route along the seafront, giving a fascinating and
authentic experience from the Victorian era.

A driver's eye view of the Volks Electric Railway, Brighton. Thank you so much to the driver who let me get in the cab. At 4:50, a man crossed the tracks without looking and was nearly hit by the train. I know that he was fine, but he was lucky. There’s
a reason that the signs say stop, look and
listen, and if the train had been going
much faster he might not have been so
lucky. I know most people watching know
all this, but do be careful. Crossing the
line without looking has killed.
Operated as a historical seafront tourist attraction, the railway does not usually run during the winter months, and its service is also liable to occasional suspension due to severe weather or maintenance issues.
History
In 1883 Magnus Volk opened a short, 2ft (610mm) electric railway running for 1⁄4 mile (402m) between Swimming Arch (opposite the main entrance to Brighton Aquarium, and adjacent to the site of the future Palace Pier) and Chain Pier. Electrical power at 50 V DC was supplied to the small car using the two running rails. In 1884 the line was extended a further ½ mile beyond the Chain Pier to Paston Place (now known as Halfway), and regauged to 2ft81⁄2in (825mm). The electrical supply was increased to 160 V DC and the power plant was installed in the arch built into the cliff face at Paston Place. In 1886 an off-set third rail was added to minimise current leakage.
