BR made extensive use of the route through Barcombe Mills Station for diversions from the Brighton line right up until closure, with the winter of 1968-69 being particularly busy.

Because the route was not electrified, Hastings line diesel units were used for these services, providing a disinct improvement on the usual rolling stock.
