Derby Friargate Station, GNR

I used to live in Friargate in Derby, where the old railway bridge and GNR Warehouse still exist, and if you look on aerial photos a decent chunk of the route, considering it's just outside the city centre, can still be seen - does anyone have any interesting photos of the Station and area when in use?

I'm sure you have probably seen them but there are two films on youtube which may be of interest.

-Derby station GNR the last train

and -The ex GN branch from Nottingham Victoria to Derby Friargate
