Paddock Wood
Keylands Sidings: By David Morgan
Another one of life's little mishaps is captured in Keylands Sidings at Paddock Wood. If I remember correctly, the Dover-bound train of empty ferry wagons from the Whirlpool Distribution Depot had been left standing across the points at the Maidstone end of the sidings, when the shunting loco reversed out of another siding and the inevitable occurred.
