70013, "Oliver Cromwell", London - Canterbury - London 24th Sept 2008
On a mainly dull day and sometimes wet day, 70013, "Oliver Cromwell", worked a Steam Dreams "Cathedrals Express" from London to Canterbury. next

70013 works hard accelerating away from the 25 mph speed restriction at Swanley, heading down to Canterbury West via Otford and Maidstone East. next next Running virtually on time 70013 makes a lovely sight and sound attacking the steep grade of Bearstead bank, just the Ashford side of Maidstone East. next next 70013 hurries though Chartham, just a few miles down the line from it's destination of Canterbury West. next Sadly, but so typical for 2008, the sun only made a brief appearance after 70013 and it's 11 car train was stationary at Canterbury West! top  2008 Photos continued  Index
