The Way We Were: Castle Donington & Ratcliffe 1994

            Castle Donington Power Station, on the right, had already closed when this scene was recorded in early September 1994, but Ratcliffe (background left) was still very much on stream. With the Nottinghamshire Coalfield still in production, this loaded Merry-go-Round working, hauled by Class 58 No. 58009, was probably heading for Didcot Power Station. It is seen approaching Weston-on-Trent. Copyright Photograph John Whitehouse - all rights reserved
