Grand Junction Canal Viaduct [Northampton]
This is the East chord from the Bedford and Peterborough lines to Northampton (formerly Castle) station. In this direction, the bridge crosses the Grand Union Canal, then the River Nene. Goods sidings to the right and left beyond the bridge have gone, as has the West chord. The trackbed from here to Brackmills see image 34291 has been bought by West Northamptonshire Development Corporation for £1.5m for conversion to a footpath and cycleway.
