Thanks Sarah - another group of stations I wanted to see ticked off - you’ll have to get all the way to Skegness at some point. Love the station buildings at Seaford and all the timber details - they sure knew how to build stuff back then! Best Duncan
Great video, Sarah! I really enjoyed despite the storm like winds! 😂 I definitely enjoy the detail with the history of each station! Keep up the great work!
Really interesting video, just one correction, Sleaford North and Sleaford South signalboxes were abolished about a decade ago, the "Joint Line" from Peterborough to just short of Gainsborough is worked from Lincoln signalling centre. It's a shame you didn't have time to walk down to Sleaford West, it's one of very few gated level crossings still worked by a wheel in the signalbox.
A mixed review on the packed lunch! Nutella sandwich was a winner but the Sainsburys salt & vinegar crisps were a let down unfortunately! The lunch was redeemed by some grapes though! All in all I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I used to live near this station in the village of Great Hale, and delivered newspapers to the station masters house and the signal man's house from around 1967 to 1971. In 1961, what I think is now the museum was open as a ticket office and waiting room on that side of the station. Similarly from 1961 up to 1972 to my knowledge the wooden building used to be in operation as a waiting room. When I was delivering newspapers, the Pocklington family still lived in the large house in between the windmill and the station.
Brilliant video Sarah, I've never visited any of those stations before. I've only ever been to the towns of Boston and Sleaford by road. Lincolnshire does look pretty windy lol but I've been to other places in the country that are rather windy. :D
Brilliant video, still love the sound of the sped up walking lol
Very enjoyable as always. And I enjoyed the music too ! Thank you Sarah.
I sit down for lunch and see a new video from you. No better way to enjoy my break.
Great video Sarah !
why has Sarah got so few subscribers - it makes no sense - her videos are so wonderful more people need to see them
I second that! 👍🙂
Excellent video as always 👍

Thank you for the correction! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Never knew there's a railway museum at Heckington. I'll have to check it out if I'm in that area
Excellent video as always 👍
How was the packed lunch. Did enjoy the Poacher Line, have been to Skegness but never stopped at those stations. Great video

Thank you so much for all the information David! It's really great to hear from somebody who knows the area!
Spent a lot of time on this part of Lincolnshire as a kid. Especially Boston (with its stump)

How are you getting on ticking off EMR 170s for haulage?
Heckington windmill is the last working 8 sailed windmill in England
No, no, no Sarah, if you want the windiest place in the world, Nuneaton railway station will always beat anything
It's why we know it as Windy-eaton
I'll have to pop over to Nuneaton verify that claim sir!
How fast would that windmill be turning if it had sails on it 😂
It's a scary thought 😂
Slightly breeze I see
Just a little one!
