Assuming we are at Moira for reversal, the junction being west of Ashby, we next pass

Ashby de la Zouch (Melbourne Line platforms)

I have never been sure whether they count as a separate station

OBSERVATION

In 1874, the Midland Railway extended its Melbourne Line to Ashby de la Zouch coming from the west of Ashby de la Zouch station and for a short time, until full connectional matters to Ashby de la Zouch station were fully completed, a short branch line was completed on which a temporary station was erected.I do not know the length of time this temporary station was operational
