Kent and East Sussex Shunting Locomotive observations in the 1970s, 80s and 90s - top page

08650 is seen stabled just to the east of Tonbridge station, downside, on 24th January 1976

For many years two locomotives were based here, one usually to be found in West Yard and the other in the NCL depot/station. In later years these also tripped to Paddock Wood and did any shunting required there. If submitting a sighting please put a comment if you recorded the location more precisely than Tonbridge e.g. West Yard or Station.
