    On this day in History - Folkestone and Ashford
    13th October 1973


    An excursion from Nottingham to Folkestone and Ashford behind class 47 1839 generated the following sightings:

    Class 08 (3093/95, 3223/25, 3463/66/68, 3586/87, 3776/88, 3817/63, 3996, 4015), class 09 (3671, 4099, 4101/02/10), class 20 (8063/88), class 25 (5189, 5220/44, 7556/62), class 31 (5630), class 33 (6500/52/67/68/71/78/85/88), class 45 (17/46/49/83, 115, 45001, 45103/05/11), class 47 (1803/13/39), class 71 (E5002/03/04/06/07/08/10/11/12/13), class 73 (E6008/09/22/29/35/45/48), class 74 (E6101), steam (31263).

    Of note are 3093 and 3095 at Chart Leacon MPD which were both withdrawn and are within four months of being broken up, ten out of fourteen class 71’s seen in the day and the start of the TOPS renumbering scheme with four class 45’s with there new numbers

    I photographed a number of these engines above in later life and they can be seen in this collection.
