45120 Red Hill Tunnel 1M88 30th May 1978

The southwestern-most cooling tower of Ratcliffe Power Station is visible through Red Hill Fast Tunnel as 45120 hurries the 1M88 1710 Sheffield-St Pancras over the Trent on Tuesday 30th May 1978 while the pillbox atop Red Hill stands guard over proceedings. At the time if you looked immediately right when exiting the south end of the tunnel there was some interesting equipment stored in the field including a human cannonball truck & several silver projectiles looking very much like German V2 rockets.
