Southeastern trains run to Walmer Station on the Kent Coast Line, Walmer, Deal, Kent


Walmer Railway Station serves the town of Walmer in the district of Dover with regular Southeastern trains running on the Kent Coast Line. In typical off-peak service hours, trains from Walmer operate on an hourly basis to both Ramsgate from platform 2 and London Charing Cross via Folkestone Central and Sevenoaks from platform 1. Select trains serve Sandwich and Faversham from platform 2, while additional trains run to St Pancras from platform 1. The track on a railway or railroad, also known as the permanent way, is the structure consisting of the rails, fasteners, railroad ties (sleepers, British English) and ballast (or slab track), plus the underlying subgrade. It enables trains to move by providing a dependable surface for their wheels to roll upon. For clarity it is often referred to as railway track (British English and UIC terminology) or railroad track (predominantly in the United States). Tracks where electric trains or electric trams run are equipped with an electrification system such as an overhead electrical power line or an additional electrified rail. The term permanent way also refers to the track in addition to lineside structures such as fences.
