Thursday 4 October 2012

Gala Weekend

A fantastic weekend for our 500+ passengers! These photos show some of the trains and unusual formations operated:

Diesel locomotives Victor and Barton Hall double-head a passenger train from Sittingbourne Viaduct

Melior posing on Milton Regis Viaduct, adjacent to Mill Way Roundabout

Leader and Melior double-head the last train from Kemsley Down, the train stops at Milton Regis (Asda) Halt to enable Leader to proceed to Sittingbourne Viaduct on its own, this is due to weight restrictions on Milton Regis Viaduct

Leader and Melior top 'n' tail the empty train to form the first train from Sittingbourne Viaduct. This is the train approaching the Sittingbourne Northern Relief Road bridge, shortly after departure from Kemsley Down

Leader heads the empty train to form the first passenger working from Sittingbourne Viaduct. Melior is still attached to the rear of the train.

Superb approaches Sittingbourne Northern Relief Road bridge from Milton Regis (Asda) Halt

Leader passes Council Crossing bound for Milton Regis (Asda) Halt

Melior about to depart Milton Regis (Asda) Halt enroute to Kemsley Down

Leader and Melior await departure from Kemsley Down, this was the last train of the season

Top 'n' tailing, the empty train back to Kemsley Down on Sunday evening is topped by Superb and tailed by Melior. Here they are passing Mill Way Roundabout on Milton Regis Viaduct
