Next to Dungeness nuclear power station is a lighthouse from the top of which is a great view of the local train service. They have steam and internal combustion engines, but what's less obvious is that this is a 15 inch gauge railway. These are miniature trains, and yet this is no mere tourist attraction - this is the local train service and it does real work. During WW2 a miniature armoured train ran on the line.

Dungeness is surreal.
