The remaining section of the former Lancashire, Derbyshire & East Coast Railway line, from Shirebrook to Tuxford, is now used as a test track (try https://www.networkrail.co.uk/industry-commercial-partners/research-development-technology/ridc/ridc-tuxford/ ). Colas Railfreight's Class 37/0 37057, built by English Electric in 1962 and painted in the British Railways green livery it carried then, passed through the former Edwinstowe Station at 7.22 on a cloudy June morning. For a clearer view of the former station building on the right, see Image
