- The London, Chatham and Dover Railway (LCDR or LC&DR) was a railway company in south-eastern England created on 1 August 1859, when the East Kent Railway was given parliamentary approval to change its name. Its lines ran through London and northern and eastern Kent to form a significant part of the Greater London commuter network. The company existed until 31 December 1922 when its assets were merged with those of other companies to form the Southern Railway as a result of the grouping determined by the Railways Act 1921. The railway was always in a difficult financial situation and went bankrupt in 1867, but was able to continue to operate. Many of the difficulties were caused by the severe competition and duplication of services with the South Eastern Railway (SER). However, in 1898 the LCDR agreed with the SER to share the operation of the two railways, work them as a single system (as the South Eastern and Chatham Railway) and pool receipts: but it was not a full amalgamation. The SER and LCDR remained separate companies with separate shareholders until both becoming constituents of the Southern Railway on 1 January 1923. 'The Chatham', as it was sometimes known, was often criticised for its lamentable carriage stock and poor punctuality, but in two respects it was very good: it used the highly effective Westinghouse air brake on its passenger stock, and the Sykes 'Lock and Block' system of signalling. As a result, it had an excellent safety record. (en)
- La London, Chatham and Dover Railway (LCDR) est une ancienne compagnie ferroviaire britannique créée le 1er août 1859 et dissoute en 1923 lorsqu'elle fusionne avec d'autres compagnies pour créer la Southern Railway lors du regroupement de 1923 prôné par le « Railways Act 1921 ». Le 1er janvier 1899, la London, Chatham and Dover Railway s'associe avec sa rivale la South Eastern Railway pour créer un comité de gestion opérationnel commun : la South Eastern and Chatham Railway (SECR). Au sein de la SECR, les deux compagnies restent distinctes en tant qu'entreprises mais sont associées dans la SECR pour la gestion de leur réseau mis en commun, jusqu'à leur absorption par la Southern Railway.

Suas linhas cruzavam Londres e a parte oriental/setentrional de Kent, e constituíam uma parte significativa da rede ferroviária suburbana da Grande Londres. Embora a Chatham, como sempre foi conhecida, fosse objeto de muitas críticas pelo mau estado de seus vagões e pela sofrível pontualidade, em pelo menos dois aspectos era muito boa: usava o eficiente sistema de freios Westinghouse nos vagões de passageiros e o sistema de sinalização Sykes Lock and Block. Realmente, embora fosse deficitária desde seu começo, a Chatham ostentava um excelente nível de segurança. (pt)
