THE Brighton-in-an-hour train,'The Southern Belle; which performs the journey between Victoria and Brighton in 60 minutes, is regaining its old-time popularity. During the war this train was suspended, but now it again makes two journeys between London and Brighton daily within the hour. This train of Pullman Cars first performed the journey in 60 minutes in October, 1899. It was then known as The Brighton, Limited', but in 1908 a new train of luxurious Pullman Cars with all the latest improvements was specially built for this service and so it was given the name of 'The Southern Belle.'
