A massive icicle seen hanging off the rain gutter of a 4-EPB EMU at Dartford station - taken on 9th Feb 1991.


This brought the rail network into chaos, and services in the south-east were heavily disrupted. On the 8th of February, the snow was lighter and started to ease. However, the cold spell and the snow lasted for several days.
