View NW, towards Lincoln Central station and the main lines to Gainsborough and Doncaster (ex-Great Northern & Great Eastern Joint), Retford and Sheffield (ex-Great Central). This Pelham Street Crossing in the middle of the City was one of the busiest level-crossings - hand-operated gates worked by four crossing-keepers - surviving until a road bridge was eventually built in 1961. LNE B1 4-6-0 No. 61326 was shunting stock.
