In 1992 was celebrated the 150 anniversary of Ashford's Railway, and all sorts of trains ran on the Ashford-Hastings line. This is a mostly single-track country line and therefore ideal for these "extras". Here we see Steam (34027 "Taw Valley") and Diesel (33104) plus the line's indigenous (then) diesel-electric units. Be aware that this is from an old tape and does not always play right to the end - but you get at least three steam sequences! Action mainly around Rye.
