This well-known view of Leicester North is taken from the bridge that carries Swain Street over the railway. In this scene 45104 'Royal Warwickshire Regiment' slows for its stop at Leicester station leading the 1M21 12.10 Sheffield to St. Pancras service. The train is passing the 1911 Midland-built Leicester North signal box and some of its associated signalling. The superb three-doll bracket signal just beyond the box is notable as is the relatively empty PW yard to the right.
