Dist:0.5km<br/>When this photo was taken (September 1983), Whitwell Station (after which the signal box was named) had been demolished and the station buildings moved to the Midland Railway Centre at Butterley. The spoil heap of Whitwell Colliery (closed in June 1986) can be seen behind the signal box. In the early 1980's, the railway line (from Pye Bridge to Worksop) was heavily used by trains transporting coal from the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire coalfields to the Trent Valley power stations and this photo pictures two coal trains crossing at Whitwell. Although coal traffic has greatly declined, the railway line received a new lease of life in the late 1990's as the "Robin Hood Line". This passenger service connects Nottingham with Worksop via Mansfield and there is now a railway station again at Whitwell.
