What Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway looked like in its prime.
A compact 15-inch-gauge railway of small, full-outline steam locomotives and short wooden saloon coaches, painted deep green and black with brass fittings and lamps. Tracks often lie low on shingle or light ballast across flat coastal marsh; platforms are low timber or brick with red-tiled single-storey station buildings and small signal boxes. Engine sheds, turntables and a balloon loop at the terminus cluster near low-lying workshop buildings. Locomotives show exposed valve gear, narrow wheelsets and short chimneys; coaches have clerestory or low-pitched roofs and varnished woodwork.
