    Came from watching Geoff Marshall’s video he done yesterday about the former Folkestone Harbour branch line. So sad it’s not there anymore. Would there be a spur linking from Folkestone Central to Folkestone Harbour and to have a station between Folkestone Central and Folkestone Harbour.

    Once the abandoned line gets developed into a park and cycle line, it will be great to see a comparison.

    I could appreciate these cabride/footplate/mitfahrt videos more if they would either start or end with a picture of the train itself so we can see what we're riding on.

    Folkestone East looks strange.

      Yes the platform looks very narrow

    One really doesn't notice the steepness of the climb: 1:30.

      I used to be taken to the funfair on the beach at Folkestone as a child , but iv now learned it's no longer open same as the cliff lifts.
      (How did this happen ??? )
      It would be great to open a new fun park with apartment's for family weekends , now it's so quick an easy to travel to and from now transport links have been highly improved.

      @@originalherdsman3524 it's not the 1960s any more. People don't want to go to scrubby Folkstone
