16th August 1981
This was the last train ever to run on the lines between Northampton and Market Harborough, seen here with the Spratton level crossing. This was a 'special' passenger train to mark the closing of the line to general passenger services in May 1949. Many 'specials' ran after that date, and the line still carried freight.
