Six Bells Junction

Route :
???? : London Victoria to Folkestone West
???? : Folkestone West to London Victoria

Notes :
(1) 67014 on rear.
(2) Return booked timings suggest use of Atlantic Lines from Peckham Rye. After Factory Jn timings show both Longhedge Jn (twice!) and Stewarts Lane Jn which would require multiple reversals (these 'suspect' timings are shown in italics in the timing table below); it is likely the train ran direct to London Victoria (the distances would then be: Linford Street Jn 72m 34ch, Grosvenor Bridge Jn 72m 76ch and London Victoria 73m 69ch).
