- A superb afternoons session spent at Nottingham on the Midland Mainline where we see plenty of services from East Midlands Railway, Cross Country, Northern and freight from GBRF and DB Cargo UK.
This wasn't the original station that first served the town of Nottingham. The first station was Carrington Street Station and was opened in 1839 when the Midland Counties Railway opened their line from Nottingham to Derby, the old station sites on the sight where the Magistrates Court now resides.
The current station wasn't opened until 1848 when the Midlands Counties Railway merged with two other companies to create the Midland Railway. As a result of the various companies coming together and the resulting increase in traffic it meant that the old station was no longer fit for purpose, so a new station had to be built at the current sight to accommodate the growing levels in traffic.
There was an accident at the station in 1896 when a loco was running light engine through the station tender first and collided with a stationary freight train. The freight train in question had six empty fish wagons in its consist, during the collision one of the wagons was thrown off the rails and collided with an cast iron support for the station roof which subsequently caused a 94 ft section of the roof to collapse onto the platforms and some of the track.
In the early 1900's the station was redesigned and made larger to accommodate many more trains and passengers. With the re-design having been completed in 1904, the various work to the station was billed at roughly £1 Million which in todays money would be around £108.2 Million.
During the time that the station was under the control of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) the station was the target of an IRA bombing, along with several other stations including, Leicester, Derby, Birmingham, Stoke, Coventry, Leamington Spa and Stafford. It was discovered that a bomb had been left in a suitcase on the station was detonated at 6:30am, the glass roof of the cloakroom and the inquiry office were blown away in the explosion.
In 2004 the NET (Nottingham Express Transit) opened its line with the terminus being Nottingham station for quite some time. The bridge that the trams currently run on was part of the old Great Central Mainline, a lot of the tram route runs on the same surface.
The station went through several remodeling phases throughout the remainder of the 21st century until it got to its current format we all know today.
In 2018 there was a huge fire that tore through a large section of the station was required the attention of over 10 fire engines and 60 firefighters to try and tackle the blaze. The fire was later established to been caused by a 34 year old woman who had set fire to a bin whilst trying to use Heroin and Crack. After the fire had been dealt with East Midlands Trains renamed one of their HST power cars (43467) to 'Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service and British Transport Police Nottingham'
This will be my final film of the year sadly due to the industrial action that is taking place across the country throughout December. I would like to take this chance to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and the most wonderful new year!
I hope next year will be better for each and every one of you! And thank you all for your continued support throughout the year it really is greatly appreciated! I have some more plans for my films for next year, just got to hope that the rail strikes get sorted and we don't have a repeat of this happening next year!
There will be a lot more European films coming out next year along with a lot more heritage railways coming into the channel aswell which I am really looking forward to getting done for you all.
I will see you all next year!

Thanks for all the great films this year. I have watched every single one of them and they were all great. Looking forward to the films in 2023.
Thank you ever so much for your support it really does mean a huge amount! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
Another great video
The XC services from Nottingham and back just go into the sidings for a bit to clear the space then go back to Nottingham to go wherever it’s going
As an American citizen, I feel like I will always prefer southeastern train lines and trains over anything else
Very nice - I actually went to Nottingham from St Pancras unironically on the 10th of December - The train got bloody delayed by almost 20 minutes due to issues at Pancras but it was a nice ride - Different from the usual trains I am use to. It was a very nice route despite the delays and the train having to get reworked due to signalling issues at Bedford. Very nice city honestly - definitely going again next year.
I'm glad you enjoyed yourself!
Another fantastic year of trains at has come and gone and what a year it’s been!!
Bring on 2023!

Great video at Nottingham Jared and merry christmas 🎄 🎁
Thanks very much! Always enjoy coming here! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas
Nice video mate! Merry Christmas
Thank you kindly, I hope you had a great Christmas!
Nice video from Nottingham once again! Nice seeing you as well and next time you're here hopefully some 180's will be doing the rounds. My video is also now out as well! Looks like the traditional end at Clapham Junction wasn't to be! Surely next year's traditional start at the usual place will happen, so fingers crossed for that!
It was great meeting you again! I'm sure we will be meeting up again sometime soon!
@@Tornado922 I'm sure we will, particularly with your Midland Mainline series that would likely include Nottingham expected this year with luck!
nice vdo friend..merry christmas!!!
Thanks very much, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
Love the two ewoks filming and talking at the same time !
Never heard anyone be referred to as Ewoks before haha
Not the best day for EMR, but some fine trains trundling through, many with standing room only. Trusting Clapham Junction works out.
Hopefully a good Christmas Day for you and your family
Hopefully my next visit to the MML will be a touch better haha! Clapham Junction wasn't able to ahead last year because of the industrial action taking place. Hopefully this year I can do it! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas
I'm looking forward to your start to the Dover Priory to London series if it happens
So am I!!
Merry christams
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
Wish you a Happy Christmas Jared
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
You should cover Wellington Shropshire
Is it a busy station?
@@Tornado922 Not particularly, though there’s been a bit of an increase in the amount of freight coming through recently. It’s also commonly visited by 5P55 LSL test runs
Great videos mate. What or how do you find out the movement of freight trains? Do you use an app or RealTimeTrains? Thanks
The Nottingham to Nottingham move would go out of the station to either a signal or siding before coming back into another platform
I figured that out much later into the evening haha
When a New video?
