A relatively leisurely start found Andy and me heading to March in his ever-trusty Nissan Micra. Here we followed the route of the former GN & GE Joint route to Spalding that closed back in 1982. We discovered considerable pieces of infrastructure still in place including most of the signal boxes. It was sobering for me that I visited the line with Graham forty-two years previously almost to the day during its final full year of operation; where has that time gone? In the evening, after a most agreeable curry in Peterborough, Andy and I headed to the station for an hour or so before returning to our hotel.
