Compared with this scene from five years earlier SK3903 : Market Bosworth Station in Leicestershire, Market Bosworth Station is looking a little down-at-heel. In fact the intermediate station on the Battlefield Line is currently closed, with trains running through non-stop, probably as a result of Covid-19 disruption. The first vehicle in the siding is a former British Rail mark III coach.
Battlefield Line

The Battlefield Line Railway is a heritage railway in Leicestershire. It runs from Shackerstone to Shenton, via Market Bosworth, a total of 5 miles. Shenton is near Bosworth Field, (the location of the final battle of the Wars of the Roses), giving the railway its name.
