My expertise on the Southern begins and ends with the Schools Class.
I'm building one of those in 1 1/2" scale.
Brian Stephenson seems to have books published on the Southern Railway
and, if you haven't seen them, go to Motorbooks and search on Southern
Railways. http://www.motorbooks.co.uk/index.asp
Locomotives built at Eastleigh, Brighton, and Ashford are given in 4
volumes. I've no idea if the D3 was built in either of these shops.
If you find out which shop the LBSC D-3 was built in, a history of
that shop might have something.
Also, http://www.semgonline.com/steam/d3-d3x_01.html which I'm sure
you have seen.
