A superb shot taken from the footbridge at Grimsby Docks station.
Virtually none of the buildings seen here remain,
all sidings, station building, cooling towers and maltings have
gone. The station is now reduced to a single platform and bus type shelter.

Dave Bell says Grimsby Docks was his favourite place for spotting
on a summer Sunday
or Bank Holiday Monday - with this variety of steam power it`s easy
