Folkestone East (reception sidings) to
Folkestone Harbour cab view video - Class 67 (EWS) top and tail with VSOE stock.
This is a charter service for pre-booked
customers only.
Little motive power is required on the downward journey towards Folkestone Harbour. The falling gradient of 1 in 36 after exit from the sidings then 1 in 30 only requires the train to be kept in check within the line speed restriction of 20 MPH using locomotive dynamic braking and some train pneumatic braking.
