Nottingham Midland Station 1956

This view taken in the summer of 1956 shows a Stanier 8F 48073 coming off the line past London Road Junction signal box with coal empties. The train in the platform carries coach destination boards - possibly a Bradford - London express

The former London Road station can be seen in the background. This building has recently been restored but the signal box is long gone.

Nottingham's Sprinter depot now stands on the site in the right distance
