Melbourne Junction
View south at Melbourne Junction in February 2013, with the Voyager just over a mile short of Derby station. The tracks to the left used to run to Ashby-de-la-Zouch; and are still used to deliver jet fuel to the Rolls-Royce engine test beds. The vestigial passenger service to the Sinfin stations - which was met by RR security staff to let workers through the otherwise locked gates in the factory fences - finished about 20 years ago.
