Thumpers near Dover

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The film starts on the East Kent Railway where Thumper 1101 rolls into Shepherdswell Station, it is then followed up with other shots of the same unit. Then it is down to the Main Line station at Shepherdswell where we first see the modern electric train heading off to London then it is followed by former LNER steam locomotive 61306 Mayflower.
After that we head down to Samphire Hoe which is between Dover and Folkstone where we first see a modern Javelin unit then the Preserved Hastings Unit heading back to its home depot

    +Preserved Thumpers I have always wondered why these particular trains were nicknamed Thumpers? My guess is that it might be to do with the sound and vibration when they are by a station platform or when they are moving along the track
