There is a procession of minor foot crossings south (and

north for that matter) of this location near Langford just south of Biggleswade. Each crossings requires the driver to perform a blast on the horn. In the fog of this very cold Saturday morning trains could be heard performing this operation a long time before they came into view and this one was no exception. 91101 'Flying Scotsman' leads the 08.30 King's Cross to Edinburgh through the cold Bedfordshire countryside looking every piece the part having not yet succumbed to Azuma operation. Unfortunately, this service arrived late into Edingburgh due to a problem just south of Doncaster that plagued all up and down services on this morning.
