Looking south at Cowbit sees the former goods shed to the left with the gable end of the signal box in the middle distance. The trackbed of the former GN & GE Joint line ran to the centre right where the building work is taking place. Travelling south on the line ended up at March whilst behind me it Spalding was only a few miles away. If the line had not been closed in 1982 by BR just consider what a significant route it would now be for freight to and from the East Coast ports as well as passenger diversions.
