Thorpe-le-Soken
Thorpe-le-Soken is the Clacton-On-Sea line junction in Essex for the single track branch to Walton-On-The-Naze. The station has been downgraded since I was last here, many years ago, with the former main down platform abandoned and this island now used to give same-level interchange between the two lines although through London trains from and to Walton were at one time joined and divided here. In this scene, with one of my friends in the black shorts with shoulder bag on show too, 360106 at the rear of the ex-10.18 service from Liverpool Street to Clacton has just arrived on the left while 321320 waits on the right with the connecting service to Walton, on 18th September 2020.
