I thought this high speed link to Folkestone was already confirmed? A chum in the world of news just sent this:
The SRA announced that the following stations will be served by high-speed CTRL domestic services: Ramsgate, Minster, Sturry, Canterbury West, Wye, Folkestone Central, Folkestone West, Sandling, Ashford International, Broadstairs, Margate, Birchington on Sea, Herne Bay, Whitstable, Faversham, Sittingbourne, Rainham, Gillingham, Chatham, Rochester, Strood, Higham, Gravesend, Ebbsfleet, Stratford International, Kings Cross St Pancras, and Dover Priory (provisional).
More here... main announcement today was that the four preferred bidders can now submit detailed bids, or something. Man these documents are boring... Still it's nice to read that Transport Secretary, Alistair Darling, said:
The CTRL domestic services will operate on both domestic railway tracks and the new high speed channel tunnel rail link track where they will reach speeds of 140 mph. Journeys from Ashford to central London will be reduced by 40 minutes each way.

My father Peter Frank Windibank 1918-1986 had a family tree, since lost and I remember from my childhood that the family came from Liphook in Hampshire. His father was Frank Windibank who died in 1918. The family lived in Chichester at that time and I believe they were butchers.
I would be delighted to hear from you. My email: trc-ltd@btconnect.com.
I live in Sturry, a few miles from Canterbury, Kent.
Kindest regards,
Judyn
