Grand Central's 180108 'William Shakespeare' works the 07.48 King's Cross to Sunderland service past Tempsford. The station was located directly behind the train closing in 1956 but the goods shed still survives seen above the second coach of the Adelante. If the third section of the new East-West link ever comes to fruition, Tempsford could once again have a station with a new interchange built half a mile north of this location where the new line would cross the ECML - in my lifetime; I'm not so sure!
