Whetstone Leicestershire 31st March 2007

            The previous video had elements of LMS and LNER but this one has elements of LMS and LNER plus the GWR!

Obviously Hall Class 4-6-0 4965 Rood Ashton Hall is Great Western and is on a southbound mainline railtour (no details) at the Whetstone foot crossing.

The first of two bridges that 4965 passes under at the beginning of the clip carries the long-closed GCR/LNER London Extension trackbed.

The second brick-built Enderby Road bridge & the line on which 4965 is running  are on the LNWR/LMS line from Leicester to Nuneaton. Incidentally this bridge has since been demolished and replaced by a modern concrete and steel version.
