Description
*Saturday 1st September 2001* - Class 201 (6S) DMBS 60000 Hastings and Class 202 (6L) DMBS 60118 Tun­bridge Wells filmed during the Hastings line 150th railway gala weekend. The DEMU 'Thumper' unit known as 1001 was running specials services back and forth all day on the Hastings line between Hastings and Tunbridge Wells.

DMBS 60118 Tun­bridge Wells was leading from Hastings with DMBS 60000 Hastings pushing at the rear. I travelled the full journey, stopping off at Robertsbridge and Wadhurst, and I filmed several sections of the journeys that I took from on onboard the Hastings unit formation.
