1981-0164 - 45 128 on an up passenger working passing Burton Latimer south of Kettering.
This shows the Midland Mainline before British Rail's short-sighted decision to lift the two slow lines, seen here on the right, leaving just a double track railway between Kettering and Wellingborough.
One track was subsequently put back a few years later, and now with electrification of the line to Corby, the fourth track has been re-instated.
