East Midlands Trains Class 222009 Bombardier Meridian diesel multiple unit, pauses at Wellingborough station before continuing its service to London St. Pancras station.


The former Midland Railway Victorian goods shed can be seen at the far left of the picture.  The shed attained Grade II listing on the 5th May 1981.

This photo was taken in 2016.

News Update:
Seeing East Midlands Trains colourful livery of red, white, orange and red flashing along the railway tracks, will soon become a thing of the past.

Abellio will take over the East Midlands Trains franchise on Saturday 18th August 2019. The Class 43 HST Intercity 125 and Class 222 diesel multiple unit will gradually be phased out by brand new Hitachi trains that will be a variant of the bullet-nosed Class 800 bio-mode DMU.
The new trains will have a lavender livery and be branded with 'EMR' on both sides.
