| Photos taken of Battle of Britain class no. 34067 Tangmere on a very frosty morning. 34067 was on a Golden Arrow trip to Folkestone Harbour and Headcorn was it's first water stop. |
34067 comes into view as a class 375 goes in the opposite direction |
34067 creeps ever closer to Headcorn station |
34067 enters Headcorn station about 1 minute down on it's scheduled arrival time |
Tangmere was pulling a rake of maroon coaches, with the exception of it's support coach |
As usual, 34067 looking magnificent as it crept into Headcorn |
The famous Golden Arrow insignia can clearly be seen |
Tangmere finally comes to a rest and the support crew get to work |
With it being cold, the steam lingered in the air longer and made getting a good photo almost impossible |
A close up of the Tangmere nameplate and plaque, and the Golden Arrow |
After 15 minutes, it was time to continue the journey |
With the rails being icy, Tangmere did take a while to find her feet |
My son took this photo, so I promised that it would be included. A class 47 diesel brings up the rear and would be needed when tackling the gradient around Folkestone Harbour |
