President's Lecture:
‘Brassey, Locke and Tite;
Brief lives of the men who brought the railway to Winchester.'
In the year of Rail200, Dave Allen will give a talk on three men who were instrumental in the development of railways in Hampshire. They are: Thomas Brassey, Joseph Locke and William Tite – contractor, engineer and architect - who were the men at the head of their respective disciplines when the London & Southampton Railway finally opened throughout in May 1840. This talk will briefly explore their origins, collaboration and later careers, as the railway network spread across Britain, Europe and the World.
