Yes your stations have slipped through the net so far. I don't have my laptop at the moment and research on the phone is a pain so I'll give that a go in the morning.
As to my notice the initial clue is that I took the picture today on a day out!!

Here's the first guess...Somewhere between Kings Cross and Doncaster

Correct!! You're on the right line

I am guessing the bridge/bridges are where the east coast main line crosses the Great Ouse
Trent may a bit further up than day out from Hertford territory

Correct about the Trent, wrong about the Ouse

You may have strayed some way from home then up to Newark perhaps

Not that far, but a fair way 75-80 mins in the car!!

Though I almost had it with this at Newark, further south then..

Yes misinterpreted that answer and went on a Trent tangent, I think you have been up to Peterborough and the River it crosses is the Nene.

Grade extremely intentionally easy, but have a little look it has a striking interior.

That's an NSU Ro80... Last year at a local car show I have a great chat with an old boy who had owned his since new and still had it's original Wankel engine in it...

He had rebuilt it 10 times or so...

Well done Jum, quite right, this one is up for sale :

Not the first time our CitroJim has successfully identified an RO80, back in 2017 only a wheel and a bit of the rear quarter was enough

Impressed is the word of the day! Particularly if you got it from the wheel alone

Carsmithing of the first order Jim.

here it is in all its glory, made it with its wankel from Germany to Northumberland. I was going to put up its German Plates as a clue but just as I was about to post it up I realised the plate was TO R0 80 H.
