Passenger trains between Peterborough and Lincoln leave the Great Eastern joint line at Sleaford South Junction to call at Sleaford station, be for then returning to the Great Eastern joint line via Sleaford West Junction and then Sleaford North Junction.

 

Be for the avoiding line was reopened in 2014 all trains on the Great Eastern joint line had to use Sleaford station.

This is Sleaford East signal box on the line from Nottingham to Boston and Skegness and it also on  the Lincoln To Peterborough line in the town of Sleaford. It is at the eastern end of Sleaford railway station.

This signal box was on the railway line from Peterborough to Spalding  Sleaford and Lincoln and Doncaster on the Great Nothern loop as it is called today. Much work has gone into upgrading this railway line. This has meant that nearly all the old signal boxes and signals and hand worked crossing gates have all gone. These have been replaced by a new signal center at Lincoln, which is to be replaced, when the York signal Center goes on line.
