Canterbury Bell, Part 2: Cab view from Ashford International to Dover Priory, filmed from our preserved Hastings DEMU on Saturday 31 December 2016, during the outward leg of our Canterbury Bell railtour.
.
In this video we cover the 23 miles and 57 chains along the South Eastern Main Line from Ashford International to Dover Priory. This includes the section between Folkestone and Dover which had been out of bounds to our train if carrying passengers β€” until provision was made in the twin single-bore Shakespeare Tunnels to facilitate emergency egress from trains such as ours that have no end gangways. At the eastern end of Shakespeare Tunnel we also pass over the new viaduct built during 2016 after the original line was damaged in a storm a year earlier.
.
Video and audio footage are from an unattended unmonitored forward-facing cab-camera in motor coach 60116 Mountfield. The railtour began at Eastbourne and ran via Rye and Dover to Faversham.

I'm not a rail enthusiast, but one doesn't have to be to enjoy these cab rides. Really interesting stuff and quite relaxing too.

I found this quite fascinating and I'm definitely not a Train Spotter.... I followed it beginning to end on Google Maps satellite view. How so much of it has changed since I lived in the South East up to 1985.... the little posts of information were fascinating. Thank you so much for this excellent film.

As a passed second man, ( Next step Driver ) motive power, based at Dover Marine, I ran this line many times. But then there was no high speed line, so this looks very different at the start. Great memories, thanks.

This is really well done. Very interesting annotations. I was born in Shildon so railways are kind of in my blood. Many thanks for the video.
