South Coast July 1988 . Ex CIGs 1127 & 1286 stand together at West Worthing Depot. On one occasion when visiting this depot we found lots of broken windows on units inside the building. Obviously the local vandals had preceded us. Not sure if this depot is still in use these days.

Under the Dutch fields, windmills and deep below sea level, a 7.2 kilometer long TBM build tunnel runs deep below one of the Dutch most beautifull area's, the grean hearth... Protected at any cost this little part of nature between the mayor Dutch citys was spared during construction of the High Speed line from Amsterdam to Rotterdam. The biggest TBM in diameter ever 'Aurora' left something to be proud of. In the near future trains will thunder through the tunnel at 300 km'h. Yesterday High Speed Alliance operated a train into the tunnel to commance an evacuation drill. Ofcourse a lot of people including me couldn't recist taking pictures. ©Maarten Otto Buy Print	South Coast July 1988 . Moving along the coast to the next port of call we arrived at Littlehampton.
