  It's just as I get back to Dover from work. Every time I get to Winant Way to have a look it's late.

  I've worked out they seem to come through the same time each hour. With a 6 minute gap between Buckland Jct and Dover Priory it means they always sit over the Coombe Valley Road bridge for 5 minutes.
  
  I got a picture of it on my phone, but it was such a bad shot that I won't even try to upload it

  I once was involved with a group who reserved no. 34046 Braunton at Barry Scrapyard in 1982-here pictured. However we eventually went for 34028 'Eddystone' which of course after spending many years of restoration at our base at Sellindge is now hard at work on the Swanage Railway. When we marked up 'Braunton' we were active in an abortive earlier attempt to preserve the East Kent Railway - as indicated on the running board! 34046 was particularly stripped and corroded but eventually Multi Millionaire Jeremy Hoskins acquired her and the engineers at the West Somerset Railway did a brilliant job.The work included a brand new tender.

  

  Note the Folkestone phone number on the smoke deflector! It's just occurred to me that the West Somerset guys wrote the cab off seen here and we acquired it at Sellindge. We set about restoring it and it is now fitted to Battle of Britain class loco 'Sir Kieth Park' on the Severn Valley Railway.
  Never give up...

  Great photo why not join up with myself and others to rebuild the over 100year railway bridge we have been talking about and was in the local press?

  There should be some good action shots to be had of it going up the Guston bank, then! A pity that I'm elsewhere at the time.

  What a day to have a dentist's appointment!
  
  Here's me unable to be in the right place and only able to get a distant shot before rushing off. DOUBLE HEADED and on time!
  
  

  

  
  
  Sorry, best I could do.
