Trainspotting at Peterborough Station 20/3/2026
After a few hard weeks at Doncaster today Peterborough gave us all a huge treat later on in the day. I have never seen so many trains in such a short space of time pass. Just like the old days of 20 years ago. Always nice to see Brian’s face light up especially seeing 70020 from Freightliner show up.
One of the things that make Peterborough special is the crew changing.
As the freight trains stop to change crew they mostly thrash out of the station.
This video has taken every effort of exhaustion to make and for me and all I think off is your Saturday morning entertainment setting you up for weekend of rail.
Thanks for watching.
