1953 : The Great Flood
Not quite your normal "wrong type of leaves on the track" excuse !!
The "Great Flood" of 1953 badly effected transport lines, particularly the main railway line to Harwich. This view taken on the 2nd February 1953, looking East towards Dovercourt from Parkeston Quay, shows the undermining of the sea along the tracks.
