Wansford station is a favourite watering hole on the way back from the North; it has facilities and attractions that set it apart from other service areas on the A1...!

On August Bank Holiday Monday B1 'Mayflower' and Class 14 D9523 were sharing duties, alongside a certain blue tank engine. These photographs were taken during an hour's break at the station.
