So much for the goods yard see image 30501; but the platforms are being doubled in length - a rare example of trickle-down to the regions from the 2012 Olympics, as Loughborough University will be the official preparation centre for 'Team GB' athletes. All 3 platforms are at work here, with a 222 in platform 1, an HST arriving from the North into 2, and a 158 disappearing under the distant bridge from 3. Light engines tend to pass on the fourth track - to the right in this view.
