Brylaine YJ05 JXH 1200hrs Lincoln to Boston 151015
Most buses working on Brylaine’s Monday to Saturday InterConnect Boston - Lincoln service 5 pass each other between Langrick and Anton’s Gowt. In this shot taken in the latter village, which was only possible as the bus running the other way was a tad late, we see their Optare Solo YJ05 JXH on a gloomy October afternoon whilst heading for Boston with the above journey.
Anton’s Gowt is situated at the point where the Witham Navigable Drain system is connected to the River Witham by a lock gate. At one time a loop of the Great Northern Railway passed over the end of the lock and today the former track bed forms part of the Water Rail Way, a foot and cycle path between Boston and Lincoln. The Navigable Drains primary function is the drainage of the fenland around Boston and they are controlled by the Witham Fourth Internal Drainage Board. The Board actively support leisure uses of the system which, subject to prevailing weather conditions, is maintained at a navigable depth from May to September inclusive.
