Armistice Day Steam on the Kent Coast

Hi all,

Well what a day for Armistice Day steam on the Kent Coast. Tangmere ground to a halt on Martin Mill bank. Was 90 late by the time she arrived at Dover. 60163 Tornado not far behind, was first to leave Dover. Does anybody have a photo of the 2 at Dover. I was going to go to Tonbridge as Tornado was re-routed via Tonbridge. But as 'Tornado' has only left Dover at 17:55pm and 34067 Tangmere, still reported to being at Dover and with both being watered at Headcorn. (Should be interesting)
If anyone has been out; I'd love to seem some photos of the day or hear from anyone who was on either trip?
Not sure what time Tornado will arrive at her destination tonight, but seems to be held up by 10 mins +. I wonder if she will be held up anymore at Headcorn? Obviously Tangmere's issue has now been thrown completely out of sync. With a delay of at least around 3 hours I have calculated.

I'd love to hear from anyone about this and especially see some shots.

Cheers

Andy
