E50266 & E50203, 12.50 Loughborough GCR-Leicester North & 55009, on display, Quorn & Woodhouse station As one of the GCR's resident Class 101 DMUs leaves Quorn and Woodhouse station working the 12.50 Loughborough (GCR) to Leicester North service 55009 'Alycidon' sits on display in the station yard. Notice the avid enthusiast attempting a rubbing of the nameplate, something that many of us youngsters did on the platform ends back in the day! Hopefully reliving his youth the DPS member had come equipped with a tube attached to his rucksack containing a pre-measured and cut length of lining paper, a crayon of some description and some masking tape. Unfortunately, the blustery wind caused him some problems and a fellow enthusiast is just joining him to save the day by helping to attach the flailing lining paper! Of course, his rubbing will not be reading 'Alycidon' as 55009 is seen renumbered and named as 55013 'The Black Watch'.
