Alfreton

67007, with UK Railtours' return excursion to Kings Cross, arriving at Alfreton from Chesterfield, on time at 17.23 on 2nd October 2021. That morning, the train had diverged from the ECML at Peterborough and travelled via Stamford, Oakham and Melton Mowbray but on the way home ran via Nottingham, Newark, Lincoln and Spalding before rejoining the ECML at Peterborough. So, while ostensibly returning south, for a while the train was actually heading north-east between Nottingham and Lincoln and by the time we got to the latter it was pitch dark.
