Trains at: Peterborough, ECML, 16/05/22

A very entertaining afternoon spent at Peterborough on the East Coast Mainline where we see plenty of services from London Northeastern Railway, Thameslink, Greater Anglia, East Midlands Railway, Cross Country, Grand Central, Lumo, Hull Trains and freight from GBRF, DB Cargo UK and Network Rail. This wasn't the original station to be found at Peterborough. In 1845 Peterborough East was opened by the Eastern Counties Railway with their line running from Ely to Peterborough and the line running from Peterborough to Northampton which now forms part of the Nene Valleyn Railway heritage line. The line from Northampton to Peterborough was built by the London and Birmingham Railway. In 1846 there was another line built going from Syston to Peterborough. In 1862 the Eastern Counties Railway became a part of the Great Eastern Railway. Two years later the Great Northern Railway arrived on the scene when the opened up their portion of the line going from Peterborough, Spalding, Boston and Lincoln, when the line was being constructed their trains from London were using the ECR station at Peterborough East but was decided fairly on that they would need their own station. This was officially opened in 1850, two years before Kings Cross was named as the official terminus of the East Coast Mainline. Peterborough East was closed in 1966 and Peterborough North was renamed for a second time to Peterborough which is now the current station. The station went through several stages of modernisation where the line was electrified to having more platforms built to deal with the ever increasing demand in traffic aswell as having holding lines for freight passing through the station. My next station will be Shrewsbury. You can now find me on Facebook through the group Tornado922, there you will find regular updates, videos and photos from all of my goings on throughout 2022.
