  Nigel Collor was very much the face of the campaign to bring the high speed train to dover, with able contributions behind the scenes by Gwyn, Paul W, etc. In the end, the tracks in each of the narrow Shakespeare Cliff tunnels were moved slightly to one side to satisfy the requirement for passenger egress in the event of an accident.
  
  It took a very long time before this solution was eventually deemed to satisfy safety requirements. This may have had more to do with the fact that extending the service to Dover meant coughing up for an additional trainset to add to the twentyeight already on order.
