The scene looking southeast through March station has actually changed little today from this 1981 view. The semaphores, the signal box, the level crossing and footbridge are still extant but the stabled class 47s and stored Class 308 EMUs are long gone! Today, just two platforms are in use but there are plans to reopen the presently mothballed platforms to the left of where I am standing here with the possible reinstatement of the Wisbech branch. However, discussions of this have been going on for years with no real progress apart from the odd feasibility study or other!
