Crewlisle Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I lived in Market Harborough in the 1950's & spent many happy years there trainspotting with regular visits to Rugby, Peterborough, London, together with visits to Derby & Crewe including their works. Has anybody any photos of the removal of the ex LNWR line to Rugby, the ex Joint LNWR/GN Joint line to Melton Mowbray, ex LNWR sidings & loco shed in the 1960's/70's or a book covering this period? I would also like to see photos of the removal of the station platforms, reverse curves & installation of the new alignment, the connection at the South end & under the Great Bowden road bridge. Can anyone direct me to a relevant website(s)? Thanks. Peter 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
great central Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) There's probably a Network Rail time lapse video on line about the most recent work, often linked from Twitter somehow. Don't ask me how to find it though, I only look in the EMT feed sometimes to see what's being said.
