353 OFF TO K&ESR

353 OFF TO K&ESR

Met Jubilee coach 353 is off on loan to the Kent and East Sussex Railway for a period of up to 18 months. It will operate on the K&ESR with other four-wheeled coaches, including District Railway No.100.

The Met. coach operated for over 30 years on another Col. Stephens' Railway: the Weston, Cleveland and Portishead; so it should feel at home on the K&ESR.

The coach is seen here being loaded onto a low-loader at Acton Depot for transfer to the K&ESR at Tenterden.
