Nottingham Midland Nottinghamshire 31st May 1978

            Further south on the Midland Railway was Nottingham Midland station. Just like at Sheffield Peak diesels were a permanent fixture. This example 45101 is standing in the centre road and no doubt will take over a train from the west which has to reverse here to continue to or from London.

The trainspotters on the right seem excited to see it. I wonder if they copped the two Class 20s on the east-bound freight that's just disappearing under London Road bridge in the distance.

A morbidly interesting fact is that all the identified Peaks in this and the previous 4 photos ended their days at Vic Berry's scrapyard in Leicester in 1987/8.
