HI

I'm over here with a day to spare, any good train spotting places to see the Eurostar speed past in the area near Rochester Kent?

Especially interested in Photographing it!

Thanks David

Try the Maidstone service area on the M20 motorway, you can park up for two hours for free and walk to the bridge over the track.

Wish I'd have known that. I've just been down that way. Ah well, maybe next time.

I've always thought the Medway viaduct must look really good. Couldn't really give you any advice on access though as I've never been myself.

Spent an hour or 2 at Dagenham East last week..limit of my OAP all zones ticket
good views from footbridge
If you want the medway bridge there is a car park on the left just over the road bridge going towards chatham you could park up and walk back only few hundres yards (or metres if you prefer)...It is a bit expenceive think it was about £3
