OBSERVATIONS

1).....After Hathern and before Cossington Gate were the following:-

Loughborough (1st station)

Barrow-upon-Soar (1st station)

2)..... Noting the direction that we are taking, we would NOT be calling at Welford Road, as there was only a northbound platform there, where tickets for Leicester would be dealt with.
