Had a very interesting time yesterday. During a long chat with the Network Rail man in charge, he told me about a new crossover which was going to be walked from Brayford Wharf area, through the station to the location on the Sleaford line.
Some very interesting equipment was used. My wife came along in the evening and took video footage whilst I took stills.
Here are a few shots of the operation, the full story is on my Fotopic site
