South Eastern & Chatham Railway, Wainwright D-class locomotive No.747, complete with a train of new 'Birdcage' coaching stock, leaves Ramsgate Harbour Station in 1911 with the 11:55am Easter holiday special departure for London Victoria.
It is about to enter the ¾ mile long Harbour tunnel and begin the 1 in 75 climb up to Broadstairs station.
Ramsgate Harbour Station was opened by The Kent Coast Railway in 1863, becoming part of the LCDR 8 years years later.
The station was popular with both day trippers and holidaymakers, being less than a short stroll to the beach.
With the reorganisation of railways in Thanet by the Southern Railway in 1926, the station closed in July of that year.
