southeastern Ramsgate Engineering Depot Open Day 8 June 2019

[@BrianSeaman]

Fascinating to see behind the scenes at a modern maintenance depot - and well filmed in such blustery weather! Such a variety of traction on display. I've been to several depots now, one here and the other in Germany, both were worth making the effort :)

It was very interesting, Brian. Thanks. Plus of course Clan Line was there 😍

[@SCOOTERBOI597]

[@lesliedickinson198]

Its always good to see Clan Line and shes always turned out immaculate, a good video Hils

[@hilsthetrainlady4683]

Thank you, Leslie. They do work very hard to keep Clan Line in tip top condition.

[@Flyin9Scotsman]

Looks to have been a great day out :)
Splendid convering of the event as well! By the way did you see Mercator II anywhere? Appears to have disappeared...

[@hilsthetrainlady4683]

Thanks Sam. It was great fun. Got to pull Clan Line’s whistle - yay! No idea about Mercator.

[@Flyin9Scotsman]

@@hilsthetrainlady4683 Wish I was there as well! Glad you enjoyed it :D

[@KentRailPhotography]

Great one! What slot did you go in?

[@hilsthetrainlady4683]

Kent Rail Thank you. I was there in the afternoon. I think the weather was better in the morning!

[@donottouchtheliverail2306]

Do they have open day every year

[@hilsthetrainlady4683]

I have a feeling not. Could only find one in 2015 when I looked on line.

[@donottouchtheliverail2306]

Shame I am I big fan of the class 395,shame there is no rail tour this year,will have to try a get down to the Hornby visitor centre this year from london

[@hilsthetrainlady4683]

It was quite a long day out by train from Surrey, especially as we waited at Canterbury for Clan Line to come back through.

[@TERRYBARTLETTRAILMAN28]

nice I wish I was there so I can give a proper big whistle on Clan Line

[@hilsthetrainlady4683]

Thanks Terry. I didn't include the film of me doing the whistle. It's harder than it looks!
