Video: An afternoon spotting trains at Westenhanger station situated on the South Eastern Main Line with High Speed 1 (CTRL) running alongside. The station is a very quiet one with hardly any passengers using it, so it meant I could move about with great ease, on top of that the views are great. With the Channel Tunnel only a few miles away from this location, Eurostar trains can be seen dropping and raising their pantograph to change the settings due to the extreme height of the overhead wires in the tunnel. There was a fair amount of traffic from both Southeastern and Eurostar services including a GBRf 66 freight move from Hornsey E.M.U.D. I had hoped to see it drag one of the few stored Thameslink 700s from Dollands Moor or one of the night Class 92 HS1 freight moves but unfortunately some of the slots were delayed or inactive.
A few clips from Ashford International are at the start.
TRAINS INCLUDED:
Eurostar Class 373 TGV TMST e300s & Class 374 Velaro e320s, Southeastern Class 375 Electrostars & Class 395 Javelins & Class 465 Networkers and a GBRf Class 66.
