Sandling?

Balcombe?

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Sandling?

Sandling it is, on 7th May 1994 - the day of the "Grand Public Party" in Folkestone to mark the opening of the Channel Tunnel - which also included top and tail steam on the Harbour branch.

This was one of the two pairs of 319s that were being used to run charters a short distance into the tunnel, going as far as just beyond the UK Land Crossover
