		13/04/2012 from Edward location: Helpston Looking north west towards Stamford
		13/04/2012 from SimonF location: Helpston Same signals as in previous shot, and what looks like Helpston nameboard on GNR SB to the right. View north again but along the Midland this time.
		13/04/2012 from Richard Pike location: Helpston West Box diagram here... http://www.flickr.com/photos/32297024@N08/7072100623/in/photostream
		13/04/2012 from MIchael Doyle location: Helpston Helpston Station (MR) still a very busy Level Crossing, the GN box is all that remains in this view controlling the level crossing as a whole, interesting to see a van "TRAPPED" between both the MR and GN crossings!
		13/04/2012 from Tony Walmsley location: Helpston Train from Stamford to Peterborugh approaching
		13/04/2012 from Richard Allen (Letchworth) location: Helpston Helpston (Midland side platforms) looking towards Oakham/Grantham)
		13/04/2012 from Richard Allen ILkeston location: Helpston Helpston looking north, the train is approaching from the Stamford direction to Peterborough East. To the right out of sight is the 4 track GN main line. At this point today there are 6 running lines over one level cossing,controlled by the original GN box which is still there today.
		14/04/2012 from Mark Higginson location: Helpston Station closed to passengers 6 June 1966 so interesting to see it was still more or less intact some four years later. Although the signal box was Helpston West (to distinguish it from its GNR neighbour?), the station was plain Helpston, as there was no station at this point on the ECML.
