    Loco goes into Leicester LIP during the hour stop in Humberstone Rd, guessing it’s a top up of coal/water https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:U80942/2026-04-25/detailed

    Also via Mkt Harboro rather than Manton as advertised, .One hour stop at Leicester Humberston Road. About 40/45 miles between water stops .I would have thought they could have made it somewhere along the Bedford /Bletchley line.
