| Hi Craig,
Just replying to your comment on my website. I visited Hastings for a weekend away, and during a very long walk from our campsite we noticed a class 66 and P-Way train just out of West St Leonards station towards Tonbridge. Later on, it passed through Hastings.

| Hey Josh its Craig here. Will Samson be getting Hurricane's tender permenantly and does that mean that when Hurricane returns samson's tender will be fitted to it. Cya Mate, Craig. |
|
|
|---|
| Sammy will be gettin Hurricanes tender shortly, when someone can get it painted, which is quite hard, as i heard that a private company at Hythe (Crowhurst Engineering) would be taking the job, but they have Hurricane being rebuilt in there now so it may have to wait???? Hurricane will never have Sammy's tender, as the railway are tryin to rule out the short tenders, which is why Samson hasnt been in service. A few new tenders r bein built.

| Nice shot m8. I took a pic of skip 29 from the other side and got told by some security prat that I am not allowed to be there. LOL. |
|
|
|---|
| Do you mind taking pictures of trains that are just about to leave, because the picture you have got of skip 29was when I told some boys to move on away from the track. As I have now found out that you are one of the boys in the way I will be watching out for people like you in the near future. |
|
|
|---|
| EXCUSE ME! That train was not about to leave when that photo was taken! There was no one there at the time, and I was not with a group of boys! So dont try and accuse me of things I havn't done!
|
|
|
|---|
| Even if someone was photographing this train that was about to leave at this exact spot, it would've left the way the photographer is facing. If this train was to move past the photographer it would end up crashing into buffers. |

| WHAAAAT! NO IT CANT BE UP FOR SALE!!!! |

| I'm afraid you are wrong! 427 is not for sale, and that article is incorrect! Wrong loco! |

Standard Gauge
0-4-0 Locomotive
With a Ruston 4 cylinder diesel engine.
In good, original and unrestored condition.
|
|
|
|---|
| Yeah i read it, and all I know is this loco is not for sale. However the loco being sold is the 4w Ruston 'Chislet.' |
|
|
|---|
| Ive been told that there are two diesel locomotives up for sell at the East Kent Railway to cut back running costs. |
|
|
|---|
| Not as far as I know, where did you find that out? |
|
|
|---|
| Ive been to the east kent railway when you had the ghost trains runing. I was speaking to an old member of staff and he had told me and two other work collegues that the railway was starting to stragle with money. He also stated that they were going into talks about selling two of there diesel units to save cost and run some of their electric units instead. |
|
|
|---|
| There is some truth about the the two diesel units up for sell one is a ex East Kent Railway Diesel that left a few years ago. But the other one I still havent found out what one it is yet. All I know it is one that they use it some times and that iit s owned by the Railway not a private member. So it is not the 427 then. |
|
|
|---|
| I dont know what these people are putting down here. All i know now is it isn't the 427 and what Tom had put down it is an ex east kent railway diesel. |
|
|
|---|
| I will find out, cos i dont think anything is for sale.. Thanks for the comments |
|
|
|---|
| NOTHING IS FOR SALE SO STOP ALL RUMOURS |

A Busy Day In Kent and Sussex! |
|
|
|---|
| Great shot, do you know how often these flask trains run and at what time of day? |
|
|
|---|
| Basically, they can run any day of the week, usually thursdays or wednesdays. They depart Dungeness udually at 16.30 but can sometimes run upto 2 hours early. They use either class 20's or 37's, or occasionally a mixture of the two.
Only thing is, you can never be certain when they will be running, as DRS and Network Rail keep this train top secret due to its nucleur load.
Best thing to do though is, sign up to Se-Gen (type it into Google) and you will recieve updates on rare trains and workings, and timings for trains that you wouldnt know about otherwise. Its great, and its free! If you did sign up, look out for an email saying about 6M95 or something, which is usally the train code for the return working.
Cheers
Josh |
|
|
|---|
| No problem mate. If you have a look on my website, half of the trains, including todays VSOE, and all the other bits and bobs were all discovered through Se-Gen. If i hadnt of had it I wouldnt have seen hardly any special workings, so Se-Gen is well worth having.

Views of St Dunstan at Eythorne.
St Dunstan - A Profile View of the EKR's Steam Engine. |
|
|
|---|
| Thanks to George Ovenden, the Canterbury and District Society of Model and Experimental Engineers were able to enjoy a day at Snowdown, riding the two locomotives in steam; St.Thomas (identical to St.Dunstans) and an Austerity. This would have been in 1980 or '81. The driver of one of the locos joked 'There is Forty Year's of coal left in Snowdown but it will take Four Hundred Years to dig it out!' He let us take turns on the regulator. I told him that I'd do his job (under instruction of course) for three months at no pay and he though I was joking. I wasn't! I could not have been more serious. Eventually both locomotives were coupled up as a 'double header' and we pulled a reasonably long rake of empties as passengers in a passing electic train looked on in surprise. Wonderful day! I was amazed at how few tools were needed to keep them steaming: a set of heavy wrenches, heavy plein hammers, caulking (?) chisel, gas welding set, pillar drill (I think), a heavy vice and that was about it. The clearances in the coupling rod bearings were generous, maybe in recognition of inequalities in the track, but both locos were steam-tight. The fire-bed was kept thinner than I had expected (knowing nothing about firing myself). It was fantastic to be on the footplate of a steam locomotive on the move, even if we hardly went faster than 15 mph!
Did St Thomas survive as well as St Dunstans. And what happened to the Austerity?
I'll always be grateful to George Ovenden who I remember as a good model engineer and a very friendly person. A few months later the colliery engineer let me on site to photograph the Avonsides again by which time one had been resprayed in light blue (as seen here, but not weathered). |
|
|
|---|
| Lovely stuff!
St Thomas I believe is preserved outside the Dover Transport Museum. There was another loco called St Martin I believe, but I expect that has either been scrapped, or preserved under a different identity. |

| No, because this is one of the only items of rolling stock at the EKR that we can rely on to run every weekend. Without this, the railway would be in serious trouble |
