Location Profile - Ashford OTPD
Thanks to Ben Williams for the details about this location
Balfour Beatty main stabling point and maintenance location.
Directions (view map)
The Balfour Beatty works can be best viewed from passing trains between Ashford International and Folkestone (Eurostars also pass here) On foot from the station - come out of the south side and turn left onto Newtown Road with the railway lines on your left and car parks on your right. Continue to the traffic island with the shopping centre complex ahead of you (the roof of this looks like a huge marquee and is visible from the station) turn left under the Hastings railway line and carry on until you get to the entrance to an industrial yard on the left (former railway property.) The main entrance to the BB depot is here and machines parked at the back can be viewed with binoculars.
Usual machines
BB stored machines and serviceable stock.
