History
Middle Brighton station opened on 21 December 1861, when the railway line from North Brighton was extended to Brighton Beach.[1]
In 1926, a crossover located between both platforms was abolished.[1] In 1942, a siding was removed.[1]
In 1963, boom barriers replaced interlocked gates at the Church Street level crossing, located at the down end of the station.[2] The signal box that protected the level crossing was also abolished during this time.[1]
