Tour de France pack crosses a level crossing in Kent. But this isn't just any railroad crossing. The Kent&East Sussex Railway operates heritage steam locomotives on narrow gauge tracks across the unspoiled countryside of the Rother Valley between Tenterden, Kent and the National Trust's Bodiam Castle in East Sussex.
