Bulwell Forest Choppers - a photo on Flickriver

Bulwell Forest Choppers

            My February 1987 notes recorded this image as taken at Bulwell Forest crossing where BR 20005 & 20080 had just eased their loaded MGR from Calverton Colliery through Bestwood Park Junction. Calverton Colliery had been opended in 1952 and was later modernised to operate merry-go-round trains for the Trent Valley power stations traffic.
