Picture by Roger Bamber: 7 March 2011 : Sculptor Jon Mills welds the frame of his lifesize but two-dimensional effigy of the 1847 London, Brighton & South Coast Railway steam locomotive "Jenny Lind." Weighing 1.5 tons, and measuring almost 8 metres long it is made of steel cut to give an etching-like "see through" effect. It is being assembled in Mills's Brighton workshop as a public art feature on Brighton's new Green Corridor" walk. Already nicknamed "The Ghost Train" locally, it will shortly be mounted high on a steel beam on a disused iron railway bridge in the town's New England Green quarter and fitted with LED lights to give it a ghostly glow at night.
