This was a funny station as it was built in 1862 to act as an interchange station. Trains could stop here from Nottingham, Derby, London and Manchester etc. I did hear of instances of two trains in at the same time pointing in opposite directions both going to London on different routes, one via Nottingham and the other via Leicester. It closed in 1968.
When you have found the cache, look towards the embankment and you will see a bridge abutment, That was the passenger entrance to the station.
