A Railwayman's View - BR Midland Region by Peter Collins > Derby > LPPC DSL BW 0340
LPPC DSL BW 0340 The Peaks were maids of all work on the Midland Lines and here a Class 46 number 46018, which was at this time allocated to Cardiff Canton, waits on the goods lines adjacent to Derby station with a lowly freight service waiting to head south. The footbridge was well-known by enthusiasts lucky enough to be granted access to Derby Works. For many years the pilot-scheme diesels 10201-3 were stored here in the open after withdrawal. To the right and behind the loco is Etches Park depot and in the far background on the right is the British Rail Research Centre. Standing outside are a Baby Deltic and a Warship locomotive, long since past their sell-by dates but used for experimentation and testing by the Centre. The NSU Prinz 4 rear-engined saloon, in front of the Triumph 1500 in the car park, is a slightly left of centre choice of small car in this period before we joined the EU.
