Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway 09/08/2019
A day on the Kent coast, with the Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway in full swing for the summer months. Living up to their title of "Kent's Mainline in Miniature", the railway fronted no fewer than 6 locomotives to operate their intensive Pink timetable, with a mix of steam and diesel traction on display over the 13 mile line between Hythe and Dungeness.
The railways' flagship engine, Pacific No1 "Green Goddess" was among the locos hauling services over the course of the day. With the addition of No2 "Northern Chief" and No3 "Southern Maid", this resulted in the oldest 3 locomotives on the railway running together - all having been built in 1925.
Locomotives were regularly swapped around on services at New Romney, allowing loco crews to have short breaks as well as a chance to service the engines.
Locomotives:
RH&DR Pacific Class - No3 "Southern Maid"
RH&DR Mountain Class - No5 "Hercules"
RH&DR Pacific Class - No2 "Northern Chief"
RH&DR 'North American' Pacific Class - No9 "Winston Churchill"
RH&DR Diesel Class - No12 "J.B. Snell"
RH&DR Pacific Class - No1 "Green Goddess"
All footage filmed on Friday the 9th of August 2019.
