This photograph is taken from the huge new bridge installed a couple of years ago that carries a footpath over the line at Irchester. It's not one of Network Rail's most attractive structures but it does offer some new views of the MML at this location between Wellingborough and Bedford. 222003 and another unidentified Meridian is descending from Sharnbrook summit forming the 18.02 St. Pancras to Sheffield. There were issues between Kettering and Leicester as all trains were heavily delayed, with this one arriving thirty-one minutes late.
