The paper traces the reasons for, and the development of, the booster-type locomotives used on the Southern Region of British Railways. The latest locomotives of this type, introduced in 1967 on the electrification of the Waterloo-Bournemouth line, are described with particular reference to the multiple unit or 'push-pull' train-control system, and the application of solid-state equipment to the locomotive-control scheme.
