    What a sorry sight your pictures portray Richard. I can remember the time when the ferries came into Folkestone and the station was a hive of activity with the frequent boat trains, including the Golden Arrow, steaming over the harbour bridge and up the steep incline of the Tram Road.

    In my youth, as a member of the SJAB, I was there many times in the early hours helping the returning pilgrims from Lourdes off the ships along with their 'extra' duty free's under the blankets in their stretchers!

    It seems such a shame that it is not being restored considering it's history and the contribution it could still make to the future of Folkestone.
