If you were to shoot off on a lengthy journey down the A1 and had to choose a convenient pit-stop, then Wansford station on the Nene Valley Railway certainly has its advantages. It was a non-running day when we called in but the café was open and doing steady business from an enterprisingly lengthy menu. We settled for coffee and a wander round the site. Battle of Britain Class No. 34081 92 Squadron was lurking in the shed adrift of its cab, which was visible at the back of the yard. The “new” station building and HQ, with its even more recent extension [since our last visit, anyway], is well appointed and the café staff and the NVR volunteers who were present could not have been more welcoming.
