Despite succumbing to closure in September 1961, the platforms, station buildings and even the waiting shelter canopy were still intact at Cowbit on 24th October 1980, some two years before the line from March to Spalding closed completely. This Lincoln based Derby Heavyweight Class 114 DMU formed of cars E56043 & E50001 was working the 13.50 Cambridge - Doncaster local service, seen heading for its next stop at Spalding. In the early 1970s, the passenger service on the joint line was largely long distance loco hauled services, notably the Yarmouth - York, Newcastle - Norwich and Harwich - Manchester 'Boat Train' all used this route. In around 1974 DMUs took over being mainly supplied by Norwich and Lincoln depots, but occasionally Tyneside and Calder Valley sets would make appearances. Gerard Fletcher.
The 10.26 Doncaster - Cambridge dmu service, one of three southbound passenger services still serving the joint line in 1980. The setting is Murrow West. This was at one time the site of a flat crossing with the M&GN Peterborough - Wisbech - Sutton Bridge line on which, until its closure in 1959, the hamlet of Murrow had the extravagant facilities of a further station named Murrow East.

A Class 114 set with E50047 on the rear, seen at Pontefract Baghill in 1981. The destination blind reads Sheffield so it's probably one of the infrequent York - Sheffield direct services. Note the South Yorkshire Transport logo. Graeme Phillips Collection.

E56042 + E50038 New Holland Pier on April 18, 1981. A shame the ferry wasn't allowed to continue once the Humber Bridge was built. It would probably be still well used by train passengers between Hull and North Lincolnshire John Carter.
