A busy old area. 93 was the last year of the Chatham Dockyard -Forders spoil trains (green wagons). 3 trains from the dockyard with 5 or 6 wagons on each to Hoo Jcn made one full train to Forders.
@@spompey No problem, used to work trip workings and they made the Gillingham signalman work for his pay trying to fit them all in around the other freight & passenger workings😁
I would say it's likely to be a Ridham to Oxcroft working, it could have come from Northfleet cement works but unlikely as these generally ran at night & were 58 hauled.
Awesome footage from what was a fantastic location in those days. Another superb video, thank you 😊
Always welcome Liam....best regards....Mark
