A broadside picture of 375304 passing under the famous white cliffs working the 08.05 Ramsgate to Charing Cross. Thirty years ago, I would have been standing in the sea to take this image as all the land in the foreground is formed from chalk spoil removed during the digging of the channel tunnel. The new land is now the Samphire Hoe country park that is owned by Eurotunnel who also have a presence on the site at the eastern end where the ventilation plant for the tunnel is housed in some large and heavily secured buildings.
