Birmingham–Peterborough line
The Birmingham–Peterborough line is a cross-country railway line in England, linking Birmingham, Leicester and Peterborough, via Nuneaton, Oakham and Stamford. Since the Beeching Axe railway closures in the 1960s, it has been the only direct railway link between the West Midlands and the East of England.
