I was pleasantly surprised by the (albeit small) variety of EMU classes passing through the station… but even more surprised to find this relic of the Southern Railway!

The London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) ceased to exist on 31 December 1947 when it became part of the newly nationalised ‘British Railways’ so I was surprised to find this sign still in use in Lincolnshire last week.

I’m not going to mention its exact location as I’d hate it to suddenly ‘go missing’.
