The midland mainline can be seen in the distance. I often see trains like the cross countries and Sheffield/Nottingham services. It is nice to see freights cross and I even saw two class 20's on a tube train. You could hear them coming from the distinct engine noise. The Coalville freight line junction is just off to the left. A recreation ground is just off to the right, the houses date from 1892 and housed Shoe workers.
