A reverse view of the M1 bridge that once crossed the SMJ railway. The wind turbines reveal the location as being next to the M1 wind farm in Northamptonshire. Despite the motorway opening over a year after the railway it crossed here had closed a substantial reinforced concrete bridge was provided! However, in the defence of the planners, the track was still intact and for a few years this section of the line was used to store hundreds pieces of withdrawn stock that must have made quite a sight.
