View northward, towards Sheffield on the ex-GC main line, to Derby on the ex-GN line, etc. A local train, probably from the latter, has arrived on the Down side, headed by Thompson L1 2-6-4T No. 67792 (built 6/50, withdrawn 12/62). The scene emphasizes the grandiose of this important station as it was 50 years ago.
