Friend Peter Rose was out for his daily walk yesterday and was able to capture this small selection of locomotives.
The images together with the operational details reproduced here are with his permission for which I thank him.
Trowell Junction lies at the bottom end of the Erewash Valley line just to the South of Ilkeston station.
The main line continues South through Toton yard whilst the Nottingham line branches off to the East.
20007 & 20142 ’Sir John Betjeman’ 'Class 20 189 Ltd’. ‘English Electric’ built Diesel Electric Locomotives

Working the 1334 Butterley Midland Railway Centre-Kings Norton OT Plant.
Allegedly 20007 is the oldest diesel loco (built in 1957) with a main line ticket.
20142 carries a ‘London Transport’ livery.

on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’
Working the 1018 Scunthorpe-Southampton light engine movement.
As a former season ticket holder at Hillsborough its nice to see the ‘Owls’ being represented on the rails.
60010 & 66724 ‘Brush’ & ‘EMD’ built Diesel Electric Locomotives
on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’
While clearly 66724 is part of ‘GBRf’s fleet. The owner of 60010 is currently DB-Cargo.
60010 was working the 1205 from Belmont -Toton whilst 66724 was working the 13-02 Toton-Doncaster.
66514 ‘Freightliner’ ‘EMD’ built Diesel Electric Locomotive
