Was the locomotive able to run on a 750V system?


ITYF that Sarah Siddons is electrically a bit more basic than a modern
locomotive and the necessary mods were mostly concerned with the
voltage rating of cable insulation and providing a method of altering
the current return path; these might have been dealt with at marginal
cost during one of its overhauls during "retirement". I don't recall
anyone mentioning what was done about the motors, if anything.

Yes it went to Portsmouth and Folkestone at least
