caption_attribution_description: English: Line-up of steam at Doncaster Station in 1953. View southwards, towards London and the South on the ex-Great Northern East Coast Main Line; also towards Lincoln etc. on the Joint Line and Sheffield etc. on the ex-Great Central. I was standing near the north end of Platform 7, where B1 4-6-0 No. 61125 has arrived on a train from Sheffield Victoria. On the left is A2/2 4-6-2 (rebuilt from a P2 2-8-2) No. 60503 'Lord President', which had failed - short of steam! - on the 12.10 King's Cross - Newcastle, and in the middle is A3 4-6-2 No. 60044 'Melton' about to take this express onward.
context_page_description: Doncaster railway station is on the East Coast Main Line in England, serving the town of Doncaster, South Yorkshire. It is 155 miles 77 chains down the line from London King's Cross and is situated between Retford and York on the main line. It is managed by London North Eastern Railway.
  It is a major passenger interchange between the main line, Cross Country Route and local services running across the North of England. It is also the point for which London North Eastern Railway services branching off to Leeds diverge from the main route continuing north towards Edinburgh.
