Notes :
(1) 1854 failed with a fractured water pipe. Train was assisted to Rotherham by
1845 which was hauling a return special from Edinburgh to Derby. Was seen at
Nottingham at 02.02 on the Sunday morning, running two hours late.
(2) Plus 1854 (dead-in-tow?). Was 1854 dumped at Nottingham, or on the rear from
there to Leicester?
(3) Route confirmation required.
