Скачать или смотреть Ghost Train: Canterbury to Whitstable ("Crab and Winkle Line")

An animated look at the lost railway line that ran between Canterbury and Whitstable harbour! ("Crab and Winkle Line")

It was an early British railway that opened in 1830 between Canterbury and Whitstable in the county of Kent, England. By 1948, when it became part of British Railways, Whitstable Harbour had fallen into disuse and what was left of the line's trade had disappeared.
The final scheduled freight train ran on 29 November 1952.

In 1997, a charity, The Crab and Winkle Line Trust, was formed to reopen the route as a footpath and cycleway, 'The Crab and Winkle Way'. In 1999, a 7 mile long footpath and cycleway was opened between Canterbury and Whitstable, running along part of the original trackbed. There are plans to allow public access to more of the line.
