Nottingham Station (25.04.2019)

Here are some shots, all as seen from Nottingham Station on 25.04.2019. The high level where the trams are doesn't feature in this one, so services are seen here by East Midlands Trains, Cross Country, Northern, freight from DB Cargo UK and a light engine movement by Colas Railfreight.

Look out for:

The Matlock/Newark Castle runs running with nothing but dogboxes for East Midlands Trains
Former Great Western Railway 153318 in new East Midlands Trains livery
Some part-refurbished and fully refurbished 156's for East Midlands Trains
158806, 158810, 158812 and 158813 in their new East Midlands Trains liveries
Former South West Trains unit 158889 in her new East Midlands Trains livery with declassified first class
156/158 combos on the Liverpool/Nottingham/Norwich services for East Midlands Trains
Northern's Metro Liveried 158796 'Fred Trueman Cricketing Legend'
Northern's 158784 'Barbara Castle' with PTEG vinyls
Fully branded ScotRail unit 158786 with its new operator of Northern
150222 in new Northern Livery
A two car 170 for Cross Country on some usually operated three car services with a three car on some usually operated two car services
A bonus at the end involving a lightning strike (sort of) during a torrential downpour with rain and hail.

Worth noting that the 150 actually arrived in from Leeds at 11:03, five minutes later than scheduled before departing back out there at 11:17. I suppose that could explain why the later arrival from Leeds at 12:00, two minutes later than scheduled, and the later departure back out there at 12:17 was only headed by a 158 in the form of 158784 although I suppose that 150's whenever allocated can turn up anywhere now, so...
