John Taylor writes 'Worked as Booking Clerk for BR at Spondon Station from 1962 until 1965.

Wondered if anyone remembers any of the staff from this period.
Bill Clarke Station Master, Alan Kirk Shunter, Arthur Mayes Porter, John  
Taylor Booking Clerk, Bert Cartwright Senior Goods Clerk, Tony? Junior Goods  
Clerk, Jack? Porter and Bridget? Lady Porter.'
Just remembered: we also had another Jack ?signalman and Ken Hollingsworth signalman.

I have now checked carefully my original picture and find that there is a bit missing from the picture entered on the SHS site.

On the lefthand side of the picture there is part of a station sign ending NDON and the corner of the station house.

The angle of my picture does not take in the building where the booking/parcels and goods offices were located.

After a re look I am now sure this is Spondon Station.

Hope this helps.
