March, Cambridgeshire

This is town that tells an all-too-common story of a rise to great importance as a major railway centre, being an interchange between the Great Eastern Railway and the Great Northern Railway, only to suffer decline and abandonment in more recent times. Whitemoor marshalling yards were once the second largest in Europe at their peak of operation, but were closed completely in 1990, although Network Rail has more recently established an important yard for infrastructure trains on part of the site. The station has remained pretty much as it was in its heyday, and semaphores still regulate the movement of trains.
