Photo Balkanmodels: 17/4/2015. Locomotive number 9 "Winston Churchill" departed with the train to Dungeness so I explored the station facility and exhibits. In the foreground is the turntable and coaching stock. The tall building behind the shed houses the cafe and model railway exhibition. The car park is behind the green stock.

PS. I am sorry about the long break. I had to cover an absent colleague at school. One more week and I hope to be back to normal posting rate.

Christo....are you going to post some pictures of the armoured train????

I'm wondering that ones!

Did they constructed that for any annual war renactment day?

Though I still have 3 photos to post on this topic, I am afraid none of them are of the armoured train. It is on permanent exhibition and not as part of a yearly reenactment. I believe that it was used in the WWII to defend against a German invasion. There are more photos if you google the Net.
