The 'Leicester Gap' - Part 1 (1987 before resignalling)

This video provides a passenger's view from the front coach of a DMU service heading towards Kettering, capturing semaphore signals and signal boxes along the route. It documents the state of the Midland Main Line in 1987 before resignalling works were completed in that year. The footage shows the Leicester area, with mention of Irchester South and Glendon North Junction. A second part of this series, filmed weeks prior to the line's closure, will offer a lineside perspective of the same region.
