This photo, very kindly sent to me by Gerald Peacock shows loco 4956 on the flyover. The abutment where the line crosses the Midland main line is visible behind the engine. The spot where Gerald was standing is now under a warehouse.

The abutments for the flyover line are still visible in amongst the undergrowth.
