If you go along the A5 and see a sign to "WHILTON AND DUSTON",go down the road under the W.C.M.L. first left and head for the "WHILTON GARDEN CENTRE" you can park about 15 feet from the W.C.M.L.also you can get FOOD AND DRINK at the Restaurant Room in the W.G.C.AND DO SOME SHOPPING ( Garden Stuff ),also across the road there is MARINA WITH A SHOP ( You will need good eyesight to get the numbers of the Pendolino's as they come past very fast )it is better to get the name of the unit and get the number from a list
This is a good spot to film with a video as the Trains are about 10 feet above were you park the car.there is a bigger
car-park next to the W.G.C.( If you have got a wide angle lens and you park about 200 yards from the main line you can get a fine shot of the train )

It as come to my attention that they have fitted Two New Gates which lead into the Large Car Park space which leads into the Whilton Garden Centre Car Park,The ( New Gates will be LOCKED from 6.30pm till 08.00 AM every day of the week.
So watch out you don't get your car shut in ,you can walk in and out of the car park so far if they fix any more to the car park I will up date this space....
