This is where it all began! The start of all my European trips was from here onwards. So to start it all off was an easy day trip to Northern France catching the Eurotunnel across and driving in my friends car. First port of call was Dunkirk which is where we see a TGV leaving for i believe Paris. Then a short drive up the line to a station called Bergues where we see a number of local trains, TGV's & a good variety of freight. Annoyingly as we were driving up to the station, an ECR 77 went past on a stone train, the brief clip is seen in this video! Lastly we finish off the day at Hazebrouck, which is on the Calais - Paris line with more units, TGV's & freight. You may recognize some of the freight workings at Hazebrouck, as the Double ECR 186s were on the steel train which runs from Scunthorpe & the last clip is the now ceased working from Poland to Ripple Lane via HS1.

Enjoy!
